Weisbrod's message was very clear with this pick, Flames scouts watched him a tonne, Weisbrod made the trip,saw his skill and then did his research on the intangibles (family,charactor..etc). I heard he even called his bantam coach in hamilton.
Make no mistake, they wanted this kid bigtime, I wouldn't be shocked if he was 4-5th on their list but knowing the other guys wouldn't fall that far he was #1.
