1) If Jones is BPA and the Flames are picking first then logically we should pick Jones, thus denying either team from getting him. The Flames may be desperate for a #1C but we also need a #1D.
2) If the Flames is willing to not pick Jones and makes the same offer to both teams and both teams wants Jones, then they would both want to make the trade in order to prevent the other one from doing so.
3) If both teams are willing to trade then go with Florida as a trade partner as the #2 overall pick is better than #3.
