Flames have used their first-round picks 10 times in the last 10 drafts.

In fact, during that time only two years they didn't have a first-round pick. In one of those years, they had two second-rounders which they used on Andersson and Kylington. I imagine both would be taken in the first round in a re-do.

If there was any nuance in your opinions, you would criticize the lack of high end success with their first-round picks. You know, quality over quantity.

It's almost like context matters LOL.
