It's a problem that they are going to have to address via the draft, hopefully starting this year.

I thought Zary's and Lindholm's passing has been pretty good this season.
I agree we need another player that can score at will, but I don't see one such player choosing to come here. The most can see the Flames adding is a complimentary top 6 player like Duchene, Tarasenko, Toffoli, or Monahan, which would be a mistake IMO.
A drafted player is probably at least 2–3 years away. Unless Pelletier, or Honzek take a huge step and become impact players for the Flames.
