by definition, with any guy that falls in the draft, each successive team that passes magnifies the fall. If Calgary was selecting closer to his projected position, critics would have been less stunned.
Not going to put any stock into the bad attitude discussions here - the flames liked someone better. That's it. Seth Jones fell too; doesn't mean he was a bad kid or had a bad attitude.
