What do the Flames most need to become a Cup contender? An elite 1C? But the Flames would have to reprogram him to think team first.
Without a doubt, the Flames would be one of the teams that would benefit the most from signing McDavid as a UFA.
Huberdeau-McDavid-Coronato (elite passing, elite speed, elite finishing, the new Gatorade line+++)
Zary-Kadri-Sharangovich (two players who can generate zone entries with possession and one with great finishing ability who can regain his scoring touch now that he's healthy)
Pospisil-Backlund-Coleman (shutdown line with scoring upside; Honzek, Potter, Reschny and/or Stockselius can transition into this line in the next 2 years)
Klapka-Frost-Farabee (really another 3rd line with energy, speed, and some scoring upside)
Weegar-Andersson trade return (or internal promotion of Mews, Suniev, or Morin in the next 2 years)
Bahl-Parekh
Pachal-Brz (possibly replace Pachal with Mews, Morin, or Suniev in the next 2 years)
