IF the Flames get the 1st overall and Jones is the clear cut top pick, they should be trying to milk further assets from the team holding the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th pick in exchange for the 1st overall, so they can draft one of the centres and pick up an additional asset.

I don't think the Flames will get the 1st overall anyways. This team will finish with one of the the last picks of the lottery teams as usual after the team goes on a late season winning streak to screw themselves of a good pick again. same old same old.

Imagine if this team's ownership wasn't delusional, we would have traded off assets last year at the deadline and finished bottom five and could be watching Galchenyuk and Baertschi right now plus a bunch of other young assets.
