Lots of teams still think a top 3 pick can be instantly inserted into lineups and everyone else will adapt and support around them. There are many failed top 10, nevermind first round picks, that get into a team who isn’t able to properly support and help develop that talent in the pros.

Flames getting rid of most of their respected and experienced/talented vets, is a point that need to be replenished once this team gains better talent, otherwise that talent is not fully utilized.
Browna, another of my favourite posters.

You know, I’m not a tanker. But I do cheer for Winnipeg and Vancouver to win these days. When I would never. Unless Oilers lol.

I feel like we need to be very careful trading everyone with a possible superstar potential pick coming.

Kadri I’m not so invested in. His interest in playing seems to be situational. I don’t think the current situation suits him. I think it shows. ?

I will legitimately shed a tear if and when we move Coleman. The only guy that made me cry when he left was Iggy. This guy is an amazing player and pro. That’s going to hurt.

He’s the kind of guy (Backs too) I would want around a young team.
