Navel gazing this one is just looking to be upset about things.

I don’t think that’s fair. It’s worth questioning what’s going on with Flames scouting, development, and culture when 3/6 of your most recent first round draft picks have all either failed internally and found success externally or chosen to move on from the organization.
If these players outright busted, fine - but they didn’t. All three have left and found more success.
Culture fit problems? Coach/player relationship problems? Scouting failure? 1st round picks are so critical to success that it seems silly to just say “oh they needed a fresh start” - why did they need it? Is there something in the water?
