The Flames have just sucked at drafting centers. It's not like every center in the NHL was a first round pick and a top 6 one. Outside of Jankowski, Monahan, Bennett, Zary, and Backlund who have the Flames drafted in the last 20 years who's played 200 games in the NHL at that position?
Yeah top 2...not top 5...top 2 is usually needed to get an elite one. But eff me in 20 years you couldn't draft one in round 3 that could play 3 seasons as a 4th liner?
