67% chance we finish in the bottom four and pick no worse than 5th. But only a 16% chance we are guaranteed a top 3 pick. Our odds go way down if we finish .500 or better over the remaining seven games.
Florida has a 77% chance of finishing last, Colorado 16%.

So it looks like it will be a 3rd, 4th, or 5th pick in all likelihood.
Would you guys be open to trading that pick to columbus for all 3 of their 1sts?
currently 12th 15th and 23rd
I think columbus does that deal, they already have a deep prospect pool and if they believe there is an impact player available at the flames pick i think they would trade up to get him.
for the flames it makes sense too, adding 5 first rounders (currently 12th, 15th, 20th, 23rd, and 29th), would instantly transform the flames into one of the deepest prospect pools in the league.
here's how the trade would look based on current standing

now most times that trade is a lose from a flames perspective, but with the multitude of 1sts we would be depending on the scouting staff to make the right choices in the bottom two thirds of the draft.
would you do it? and if not how high would the flames pick have to be before you would?
