I wouldn't be surprised to see the flames draft a D this year. Last 7 first round picks that made it to the draft were used to pick forwards. I would love to have a D system like anaheim and Nashville where there is a surplus of quality nhl defensemen.

At this point I think Anderson has a shot at being a top 4 and Fox too if he can round out his game. Let's keep them coming.

Or if you subscribe to the draft BPA then a tie could at least be swayed to D.

Either way this is a chance for our scouts to earn their money - the mid to late first round always includes some gems and I hope we unearth one.
