Hello I'm new to posting here on CP, but I'm been a long time reader. I have a question about how the Flames have been drafting since new management have taken over and I think it's on topic. The Flames seem to have gone off the board with Porier (although it looks now like Montreal was interested at 25) Mark Jankowski, and Keegan Kanzig. My question is do you think drafting these players earlier in the draft delivers a psychological punch to the gut that tells a player that they can compete at a high level? Is there a precedence for this? Is this what our management is attempting? I'd appreciate CP's incites.
