I could certainly understand the Flames seeing if Lindholm was one this year, but he’s not.
The Flames took a “do it by committee” approach because they lack the top-end skill, and we’ve seen the results. I get the “committee” approach, but there are teams with elite players that also build high quality depth and those are the teams that ultimately win.
We don’t have the elite skill needed to be a Championship team, so I wouldn’t consider a team without that top talent a contender.

Which brings me back to the market.
I don't see any of the pivotal guys you suggest choosing Calgary on contracts 2 and 3.
They'll need to draft them.
The guys the do entice will always have an asterisk attached to them. Good but old. Good but paid too much. Good but x hole in their game.
