Oh yeah, no question the Flames would've done way, way better with McD and Pissmaster. Even with their knack for signing one really bad UFA every couple of years.
Depth and defense are areas they were always competent at identifying and acquiring players for. They just never had that elite top end.
It really underscores just how bad the Oilers are at every other aspect of team building, to have a defense that can't suporess chances for its life, and depth that is blanking on the scoresheet across the board.
