Of all the picks he has traded, have any made an impact in the NHL to date?

Had he kept all these picks, is there any indication, what so ever, that the Flames would have definitively been better off today for it? Go ahead and galaxy brain that for us.

Stock pile all the picks you want, there’s only so many roster spots. And unless you want to compile an army of 19 year olds, of which only 23 get to play, what’s the point?

Treliving acquired draft capital his first year, or two, then spent to fill out the roster to complete and it now appears he’s compiling picks again.
