We will need some pleasant surprises in the forward picks or some bad seasons to get a chance at some stars in the forwards

I don't really mind his rankings this go around as Calgary's system is strong with potential, with a lot of late first to mid-draft high upside picks, but beyond Parekh, they don't have the flashy guaranteed blue chip guys that tends to drive these lists.
The only real head scratcher for me is how he keeps putting the Blues' system above the Flames (I think it's because he's always a little lower on Coronato than he should be), but there's an argument for every other team being above Calgary's.
I still would only trade Calgary's prospect pipeline with maybe seven other teams, as I think the aggregate potential of this system is huge with a lot of guys that may not have the buzz but are probably going to turn out -- and I believe Reschny is going to be a very good 1C when he develops.
