The Calgary Flames need to upgrade their forward depth.
What they have right now is passable. They have a number of high caliber young players, a couple of reliable two-way veterans, and enough players of, at minimum, decent talent to round out most of the rest of the lineup. It’s a lineup that’s, well, good enough to make it to the playoffs – but not quite good enough to be depended on to make any meaningful noise.
At least another impact forward is needed, and there are a number of options to consider, made possible by either the expansion draft or other teams’ cap struggles.
