If the Flames feel one of the guys is ahead of the others they should take him regardless of position. If they feel it is too close to call then I would hope for a C or a D-man.

The Flames first choice needs to be the center that has eluded this team for over a decade. Everyone complains about not having a number one center, no depth at the center position, and the GM has shown desperation by overpaying for a third line center.
Now that there is an opportunity to draft a top center that's what this team needs to do.
