Not saying it was an error, just saying that in another universe the Flames probably would have been better served if they didn't. Especially considering the way they won their games.
Bennet not burning a year, would probably be able to get some time in the AHL rather than trying to develop beside Brouwer. Do they even bring Brouwer in. Do they still trade for Hamilton, or stay and end up drafting Barzal or Conner. Or do they lose a few more games and draft Ratanen (Colorado had 7 less points).
Of course the Hamonic fiasco.
I was only making the comparison that similar to 2015 with Gaudreau, the Flames are probably doing better than expected because we potentially have something in Wolf. Wolf winning a Calder is not a bad thing, it just probably means we have no shot at the players in the top 10.
