But when you have the opportunity to draft a super skilled centre like Lindholm, who's physical and crafty... I just can't pass that up.

Yes I'm on board with this sentiment. Nurse is going to be real good but if Barkov is gone the Flames need to take Lindholm at 5 or 6. Desperately need that top centre prospect. Maybe even trade down a slot if somebody wants Nurse or Nikushkin and we're picking 5th.
The Russian has top 4 talent but he's way too risky and a winger too boot.
Monahan isn't in the same category offensively as Lindholm, Barkov or Nikushkin (sp?)
