I guess. There are not many great center prospects in the 2026 draft class. If the Flames don’t find one this year in the draft they are probably looking at 2027 or beyond to realistically draft a top line center. If one assumes it takes 4 to 5 years for a drafted player to make an impact at the NHL level that would mean that a center drafted in 2027 would make an impact in 30/31 or 31/32.
