I dont think it's a terrible strategy to repeat. I just see alot of similarities to our current strategy, and I was hoping for something different.

Gaudreau in the 4th round and Tkachuk at 6th isn't a strategy though it's extremely fortunate luck. The Flames seem to be accumulating middle six guys and are on a train right back to mediocrity. Overachieving this year I feel has them thinking they're further ahead than they actually are. They are still lead by aging vets. They still lack high end talent. I think they're a long ways away from the last generation of the Flames.
