I genuinely do not understand what people think happens with other NHL teams. Over the same period the Leafs have added Sandin, Holl, Dermott, and Mikhayev. 3 4-6 D men and a top 9 F.

Most prospects in every organization do not make it and if they do they don't make to prominent roles. Top 6 and top 4 players have lengthy careers. The fact that the Flames have 2 first rounder forward prospects, a mid rounder who will likely make the team, a free agent D who will make it next season, and a very good goalie prospect may not be a perfect position, but the histrionics are too much.

Mangi and Andersson were 2015. The Leafs added two disappointments named Matthews and Marner that year and 2016. The Flames added Tkachuk also


Just saying
