    Just did the tankathon lottery simulation and we won it and got Celebrini so things are looking up boys

    If Buffalo, Montreal, and Minnesota all passed us we would be 6th

    I do think though that if this team does sell Lindholm, Tanev, Hanifin, (maybe even Bread and Markstrom) for all futures we could end up drafting as high as 5 because I think Ottawa will crawl out of the basement

    5th best odds is a bit optimistic, but it is possible

  3. I hope we save our lottery luck for a year where there’s true franchise talent, settle for a mid round pick this year lol.

    If only ownership wasn’t too stubborn to tank for top 5.

    They’re just happy with constant mid round picks.

    Trade the UFAs now and bring up prospects to get experience. End of story b

  5. Broad_Mathematician

    Trade everybody and bring up Billy Stromgren and whomever else, that Zeev kid could be the next Leech

    Chicago can’t get #1 twice in a row – correct?

    Didn’t they make a rule about that awhile back

    Is the draft looking deep this year?

    For the Flames to improve in the short to mid term, they’ll need a franchise player, not someone who develops into a middle six player.

    Tank is on. Hope these next round of high draft picks stick around.

    Still stupid that the league solely rewards random chance and being bad. If you’re going to do a lottery give teams an increased chance in the lottery for wins in the last 15 games. Or just make some end of year scorecard/tournament that gives you a reason to get excited for games down the stretch. Instead we have teams trying to tank in front of 7000 fans.

    Somehow there will be a glimmer of hope and the team will push for a playoff spot, and we will get destroyed in the first round or miss the playoffs by a few points. The Flames’s circle of life will continue…..

    If the flames somehow got celebrini garunteed he ends up closer to yakapov than bedard. anyone else gets him and he’s the greatest player of all time.

    The best way to know weather a season is going good or bad is if you check money puck everyday or tankathon every day
