Damm rights i would. Look at our center group and look at our center prospects. Even the guy we draft this year probably won't be playing in the NHL this year.

I don't see ownership being patient and drafting in the top 3 for the next bunch of years. I think they will take their time this year but after that they are going to spend money. Might as well pick him up now considering they are going to spend money next year anyway. Granted he would have his choice of where to go and Calgary would be at the bottom of the list.
