If we struggle the 1st half of the season and sell Coleman, maybe we get a top 5 pick?
I think this is a distinct possibility.

I think it is worth acknowledging that the margin between good teams and bad is quite small. If the Flames make a few changes to their roster, Andersson seems inevitable, the back up position is not as strong as it was last year, a few tight games go the other way, the Flames could easily be in top 5 pick territory.

I’m not sure what the consternation is with team tank. The ship has been point in that direction for a least a year now.
