Tod Button, the Calgary Flames’ director of amateur scouting, runs through the team’s eight picks from the National Hockey League draft Sunday at the Prudential Center:
* 6. C Sean Monahan (six-two, 187, OHL Ottawa): “We really like him. He has a chance to be a real high-end player in the NHL. He plays every situation. He’s a centreman, which certainly fills a positional need. He’s got size. He’s got character. A lot of intangibles.”
* 22. RW Emile Poirier (six-one, 183, QMJHL Gatineau): “We see Poirier as a scrappy goal-scoring winger who’s got speed and power. He’s a real hound around the net. He’s persistent. He’s another guy — we think he can play in the top-six down the road. He can contribute. Not just a one-dimensional guy. The versatility of these kids . . . it’s certainly a bonus.”
* 28. LW Morgan Klimchuk (five-11, 180, WHL Regina): “Morgan’s such a smart player. He can play in any situation. Kills penalties. Plays on the power play. Individually, he’s probably not a dynamic player. But the way he fits in, in any situation. He does have an unbelievable release and he’s a great shooter. But we don’t see him as a one-dimensional goal scorer. Even though he was on a weak team this year in Regina, he scored in the 30s. All three of those (first-round) guys had 30 goals and 70 points, right?”
