I can just see it now. Flames pick 2nd, MacKinnon and Drouin are still available, Flames pick MacKinnon, Ferraro et al proceed to say "Wow... not sure I would have done that. Given that the Flames need a dynamic goal scorer, I don't think MacKinnon will ever be that guy in Calgary. This is a bit off the board." Similarly, if Calgary were to pick Drouin all we would hear from TSN is "Wow... given that the Flames badly need a centre prospect, I'm not sure I would have went off the board with that pick. Given that the Flames already have Baertschi and Gaudreau in the system, they needed to have picked a centre here. I'm not sure I like what Feaster and company are doing here."
Gotta love the hyper-sensitivity around here about the media. I am quite confident that the above does not happen.
