Depending on how he does in interviews at the combine if we can't draft Mackinnon or Barkov I'd rather have Nichushkin. The team needs elite superstar level talent and by all accounts he's that. Of course if he's non-commital then avoid him but I don't think the Flames can pass on Superstar level talent if it's available to them.
The Flames are facing the Ducks next (When was the last time we beat Anaheim?) and then have a 4 Game road trip (5-13-2 on the road)... I don't see much winning happening to close out the season. Maybe Nashville but I'd be surprised if we do better then 1-4 over the final five.
