The early 1990s were time of transition for the Calgary Flames. The bright dreams of the 1980s were rapidly diminishing. Long-time general manager Cliff Fletcher left for a job with the Toronto Maple Leafs. His protege, former Flames player (and assistant general manager) took over.
In terms of drafting, Risebrough's scouting team actually did pretty well, though he wouldn't be around to see the majority of his draftees make the NHL.
1992: Cory Stillman (6th Overall)
- This was Calgary's original pick.
- Stillman was a really solid centerman, just shy of being a very good one.
