I agree with Trent that long term contenders develop from within and I don’t think the Flames have done well enough here.
Trading too many draft picks isn't the topic though.

Problem promoting young players was the topic. If they don't have the young players to promote they don't have a problem promoting them, the issue is not enough high quality players to be promoted.
