first off, it's a pipe dream to think you can get into the top 3 unless you are willing to part with something this franchise simply can't afford at the moment.

I'd prefer the flames just use the draft picks to stock pile the prospect pool. 3 x 1st rounders in a deep draft is something to be very excited about. Hopefully there is still an elite level guy left at 6.
