Late 1st can be stars too.
The funniest thing is, as much as I am unimpressed by most aspects of Flames management, I would wager we've got top five or so amateur scouting, at least in North America.
They just operate on a handicap of not playing enough young players, not having draft picks, and not having open, obvious roster spots that would entice key college prospects playing in New England Ivy League schools to sign with the expectation of a legitimate opportunity.
