I'm starting to get a really bad feeling the Flames are targeting this kid in the first round. I would rather find out what they have in Brossoit and Gillies before using a 1st round pick on a goaltender. The team needs a lot of help and I don't see the point of using a high pick on a position where the team has the most organizational depth when there will be some good forwards and defensemen available at the Blues and Penguins picks. Lots of good goaltenders can be found in Europe and I don't know if it's great practice to pick one in the first round of the draft anymore unless the kid looks really special.
