Also... since the Flames came to Calgary in 1980, here's the number of times they've drafted in the top 5 of the first round:

1983: Dan Quinn, selected 3rd overall.
2014: Sam Bennett, selected 4th overall.

I guess I was just thinking we could maybe try drafting in the top 5 again, just see if doing something different would lead to a different result in trying to win... cause, you know, what we've been doing hasn't been working.
They have been the 29th ranked team since the trade deadline.

They are doing exactly what you want them to do.
