Building from LW out doesn't make a lot of sense. Especially when you're paying your top two (slow) LWs $10+M. The Flames still won't have a future 1C to play with either of them or a future 1C or 2C, even in their stable of prospects. How dependent are Robertson's numbers on having one of those?
How is this the way to build a contender one year into a retool/rebuild?

“Listen, Ryan (Huska) does a heck of a job here,” said Jon Cooper, whose Lightning had just been stunned 4-3 by the Flames.
