2019 6th Overall: Moritz Seider
2020 4th Overall: Lucas Raymond
2020 32nd Overall: William Wallinder
2021 6th Overall: Simon Edvinsson
2021 15th Overall: Sebastian Cossa
2022 8th Overall:: Marco Kasper
2023 9th Overall: Nate Danielson
2023 17th Overall: Aex Sandin-Pellika
2024 15th Overall: Michael Brandsegg-Nygard

This is why the Flames need to bottom. This is what you get when you don't bottom out. Does anyone look at those 5 bad years of Red Wings hockey and think they're rounding the corner to true contender level?

Kasper and Danielson are his centres.
Seider, Edvinsson, Wallinder, Sandin-Pellika are his defence.
Raymond, Brandsegg-Nygard are his wingers.
Cossa is his goalie.

I don't see a championship foundation in there.
Don't say that or you will be called a hater.

Holland obviously left him with crap, but he hasn't exactly cleaned it up.

With the Flames, Treliving left Conroy with a big pile of crap and remarkably he has been able to put us in great position. Cap wise and draft capital wise.
