I'm guessing the lack of playoff success is what 96.5% of it though right?
The Flames drafted a player that made a huge (criminal) mistake. The only reference to the Flames in all of this is where Dube played.
The Flames didn't actively pursue sexual deviants on a list right after hockey IQ, and foot speed.
