While spreading picks over a couple of years may slow down the rebuild, personally I'd rather some of those 1st rounders be in 2025. It sounds like this year will be more defensive heavy, while next year will be more forward heavy...and we're going to need both. Assuming (hoping?) that some of these picks will be hits, it may also give there Flames a bit more cap flexibility down the line so they don't have to resign everyone at the same time.
