2015 Flames Draft: Recap, Analysis, and Thoughts

Looking back at the excellent weekend for the Flames, and what it means moving forward.

At trade deadline, it was general consensus that the Flames would be stocking up at the draft. The Flames were tied for second in total draft picks with nine potential selections to be made, including six in the top 90.

Then madness happened and the Flames only picked five players. And they still stocked up.

Despite Brad Treliving's insistence that the Flames would use all nine picks, he pulled a fast one on the entire league three hours before the draft and swapped three of their high picks for Dougie Hamilton, who is worth more than that.
