That's 20 assets, many of them very high in value, for Bedard and you say no?

We’ll 2 guys are FAs. So I’m paying 16ish million to keep them and they will be post prime players by the time I compete
And I get a lot of picks . 2nd and 3rds are whatever , lottery shoots
So do I get anyone close to Bedard for 5 firsts ? Maybe if Flames bottom out for a few years , but I am betting the Flames with Bedard and a cap room aren’t bottoming out , so a bunch of mid / later pics
You win with superstars not late firsts.
As a Flames fan missing the true superstar (or trading one on MT) the lack of playoff success shows what happens without superstars
