I think we improve this team over time by:
- continued focus on developing all of the players under the Flames umbrella
- continuing the strategy to increase, or at least maintain, the number of draft picks we have every year
- never ever giving up assets for rental players at the deadline (objectively doesn't work on an aggregate basis)
- opting to prioritize internal solutions and allow competition amongst draftees versus spending franchise capital ($ capital or draft capital) to plug holes
- pray for some luck
