So it takes more then a year to rebuild. Something the Flames haven't figured out yet lol.
In 2019 the Flames had the following

2013 5th overall pick
2013 6th overall pick
2014 4th overall pick
2015 5th overall pick
2016 6th overall pick

Those drafts were their rebuild years. They picked 3 of the 5 themselves but at the end of the day they had 5 top 6 picks from a 4 year period on their team
