But, if the Flames somehow win the lottery tomorrow, do you, and if you do, what do you offer Florida or Tampa for the 2nd or 3rd pick? And take MacKinnon and Drouin in that scenario?

The other two first rounders obviously...but what else?
If you look at the precedents set by previous deals for top 3 picks I don't actually think that you would need much more than 2 first rounders. Check out the deals Burke pulled off for the Sedins when he was in Vancouver & Pronger in Hartford. Perhaps the value of picks has sky-rocketed since then, & we obviously dont have a Gandolf-level trade wizard like Burke at the helm, but IMO Feaster has all the tools he needs going into this draft to make some waves.
