2. Win 2-3 rounds

Feels like young guns 2.0 right now...no stars...CAD dollar down...ownership spending down...missed the playoffs 3yrs straight, but still ignoring the draft.

History doesn't repeat, but it sure rhymes.
The Flames never had more than one first round pick in the entire young guns era so the ignoring the draft is definitely wildly off base given that the Flames will have 2 first round picks (or more) in 3 consecutive drafts.
