Even Mark Giordano was pretty much a top 4 guy until the Iginla/Bouwmeester trades.
Perhaps the Flames just need a bunch of young top 4 options and then hope that 2 of them grow beyond that.
I have basically no idea what Valimaki's, Andersson's, or Hanafin's ceilings are.
But it's good to have three stabs at the can. And it would be nicer to have one more (Mackey might have top 4 potential as well, but I'm doubtful about him being top 2).
