On draft day...

Feaster meets with his scouts and they all continue to mention picking BPA. However, Feaster has decided that for the center position they would prefer to draft BPA + size, while the wingers would be purely BPA.

ANNOUNCEMENT:

1) Flames trade #6 overall pick + Cammallari (with 2M retained by the Flames) to Nashville for the #4 overall pick.

As it turns out, Nashville have had their sights set on Elias Lindholm for quite some time now. They have just recently acquired his fellow international swedish teammate Filip Forsberg and would love to have the two as a one-two punch down the road. However, due to the departure of Erat, they would love to fill his shoes with Cammy as they are sorely lacking a goal scorer. Cammy doesn't want to play in Calgary for a full rebuild and Nashville knows its not quite in the same situation with already a strong defense + goaltending core + bright forward prospects. Due to those reasons, they feel Cammy won't just be a rental and will resign with them afterwards. Anyhoo, Calgary retains 2M of salary to sweeten the pot. It seems like a steep price to pay to move up 2 spots but that is simply how much Feaster loves Barkov and pays a premium to get him. Feaster tries to throw tanguay at nashville instead, however they want cammy due to term, age, and the reasons I mentioned above already.

Pick #4 Overall - Aleksandr Barkov
Pick #22 Overall - Anthony Mantha - 6'4, 50 goals, Reminds Feaster of Ryan Getzlaf. Feaster even has him #15 on his list and is happy to select the centreman.

Feaster is not done as he would like to trade tanguay as well since he doesn't want to stay for the rebuild either. He goes on hfboards and searches up tanguay's value and realizes that Colorado would be willing to part ways with their 2nd for him!! Ecstatic, Feaster calls up Sherman and turns out he was the one that made the proposal!!

Flames Trade Alex Tanguay to Avalance for their 2nd round pick #31st overall

Pick #29 Overall - Ian McCoshen - 6'2 200+ pounds defenseman. Same size as Barkov. Did I mention he's going to play with Johnny Gaudreau next year and is one of the best COLLEGE prospects in this draft?! Wiesbrod runs to the podium to call this one.
Pick #31 Overall - Morgan Klimchuk Feaster originally wanted to use this pick for Petan but the stupid Canucks picked him, so Feaster drafts Morgan Klimchuk instead.

I don't know anything about the other picks so I won't go into detail about that.

In summary, the flames draft transactions:

In: Barkov, Mantha, McCoshen, Klimchuk, etc.
Out: Cammy, Tanguay, #6, #22, #28, #31, etc.

Free Agency (With all the cap space, sign these players): Filppula, Clarkson, Fistric

Flames Roster:

Clarkson - Filppula - Glencross
Baertschi - Backlund - Hudler
Horak - Stajan - Stempniak
Mcgrattan - Reinhart - Begin

Brodie - Gio
Fistric - Wideman
Butler - Cundari

Ramo/Bera
Mcdonald

Prospects: Baertschi, Gaudreau, Mantha, Barkov, Klimchuk, McCoshen, Reinhart, Jankowski, Kulak, Culkin, Gilles, Broissoit, Ortio, ETC!!!!
