Especially when a top-2 pick is on the table. I don’t care if it’s a weak draft - if we’d made that deal, Shane Wright would be at our development camp this week.
Now, we have no Gaudreau. We’re about to watch Tkachuk accept his qualifying offer and go to to UFA, because that’s what this team does.
We certainly will never be offered a top-2 pick for him again.
And we haven’t even gotten to the most valuable piece on this roster, Lindholm.
What could a 27 year old Selke-nominated 40G centre under contract for two full seasons at $4.8M fetch?
We’ll never know, because we’re the Calgary Flames, and our GM is a simp.

You have no idea if the Flames were offered #2 overall
