Okay, little hypothetical here. Say Flames draft 4th overall. First three gone are Mackinnon, Drouin and Barkov. If you are the Flames you have to take Jones as the BPA.
But we would still want to get an impact forward in the first round. Say we get to the 10th pick and Shinkaruk is still on the board. Do we trade our 2 other 1st rounders (say they are the 17th overall and 29th) for the 10th overall and get Shinkaruk? Would a team accept this trade even? I guess any team would accept it if they didn't want a guy like Shinkaruk and felt like they could get the guy they want at 17.
