Interesting! I didn't catch that at all. I wonder which outlet is more accurate about Monahan's hockey sense.

Also, as per Button's interview on the Flames' site, he mentioned something along the lines of: "This year since we have 3 first round picks, we can gamble on a guy with a higher ceiling that we normally wouldn't, and have the two other picks supporting him."

I wonder if he is implying the gamble would be Nichushkin. I wonder if the gamble would even be at 6? Maybe the gamble is one of the other two picks? Perhaps someone like Petan? Really curious at what pick he implies the gamble to be at.
