6th round pick(hopefully a good player falls or a big trade is made).

In this exercise is there some age limit?
Winnipeg's being presented as being :
Laine
Scheifele
Trouba
Ehlers
Connor
Byfuglien, Wheeler, Myers, Little and Hellebuyck is another separate core for the Jets.
The Flames left out of the compared core are Gio-Frolik and Backlund and maybe Colborne?
I know it won't be popular but Edmonton's core looks ready to make a move. Held back a year by injuries
McDavid out for 37 games
Hall
Draisaitl out for 10 games
RNH out for 27 games
Dubois/Tkachuk
Nurse out 13 games
Klefbom out 52 games
Eberle is still there until they trade him for a d-man out 13 games
core games missed for the Oilers 152
core games missed for the Flames Brodie 12, Gaudreau 3, Monahan 1, Bennett 5 Gio 0 Hamilton 0 total 21 ... even if you moved Frolik 18, Backlund 0 and Wideman 31 to the core that is another 49 core games lost AND Wideman is part of the core.
Imagine where the Flames would have finished with 100 core games missed ... Gaudreau out for 37 games?
