Huberdeau

Weegar

But a few players really regressed

Coleman
Backlund
Sharangovich

A few unsung heroes

Hanley
Vladar

I don’t know. I don’t think they are as bad as a lot of people on here think. They are fairly young. Have a ton of cap space and draft picks and are competitive on most nights with the top teams.

Just need some of their draft picks to hit and at some point they are going to have to use their cap space to find some offence.

I’m betting there are a number of other teams that would prefer to be in the Flames position .
This is just my opinion, but I just see a collection of 2nd to 3rd line players there. Outside of Weegar who is a 1st pairing dman.

We desperately need some top end talent. Depth isn't the issue.

Again, just my opinion. Most of those players you listed are fine as secondary type players. We need some 1st line talent.
