WILSON: 40th anniversary of greatest Flames draft class reminder of what Calgary has been missing

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the greatest single draft in Calgary Flames history. With 12 picks in hand, GM Cliff Fletcher selected Gary Roberts (12th overall), Paul Ranheim (38th), Brett Hull (117th), Jiri Hrdina (159th), and Gary Suter (180th). The incredible '84 draft class was the apex of the best draft run this organization has ever experienced.
