Flames need to stop having 12 M 4th lines and 8 M 3rd pair. Need to graduate younger players to fill those roles. Especially if Johnny and Chucky are taking up 21 M in cap space.

This has been a Flames weakness for at least 15 years. We never have the prospect depth to fill those depth positions so we fill them with UFAs and veterans who we pick up for 3rd and 4th round picks (which in turn weakens the prospect pool).
