But why not focus on trying to get more out of picks at that spot or in the other rounds. Nothing wrong with getting better at drafting.
You can't get superstar players in that spot most years, but you can get pretty good ones if you really dial it in. I get that you and the tank crew want the Flames to be dead last for the next 5 years. But there will be years coming out of this cycle where the Flames will draft 12 to 25...they need to focus on maximizing the entire draft haul every season. Not sure shy it makes you so mad to say otherwise. Plus even 5 straight #1 picks will do nothing if the support cast does nothing. You need 2-3 guys pushing for jobs every season.
