I don't think this team needs him to stay at that level to keep the window open. But this team will need to draft and develop some very good talent over the next 4 years to keep it going
It is so hard to project even more than a year into the future. Two years ago the Flames's top two centres were Sean Monahan and Mikael Backlund,their best defenceman was Mark Giordano, and Mike Smith was their starting goalie.
