Who was the last big (6'2 or taller) top 6 forward that the Flames drafted outside of the first round? David Moss?
Guys like this do exist. Drake Batherson, Mark Stone, Jason Robertson, Jamie Benn, etc.
Most of these guys actually had pretty good NHLe's during their draft year and probably should've been drafted higher.
I don't think the Flames should avoid drafting big forwards. But perhaps they should change what they're looking for when they do draft big forwards.
