A lot of posters think it would cost us #6 + Sven or something ludicrous like that, when in reality it has rarely cost so much to move up to #3. #1 overall is a different story entirely.
Anyway, back to pencilling in Nathan Mackinnon as the Flames #1 C/RW next season...

Thanks "Roof Daddy" for the site. After looking it up, i will admit i was wrong. There were not a lot of trades that involved top 3 for the last 10 years, but it did not seem like it would cost nearly as much as i thought.
I'm with you on getting MacKinnon. Flames should offer the #6 and the Blues pick for #2. Hell throw in the 3rd round pick also if need be. Hell take it one step further and offer #6, #22 and 2nd round pick in 2014. Get it done Feaster.
