^^Agreed. Grigensons may be an average NHL player in the future but the Flames did not need that. They needed that big home run pick that could if developed properly end up being a top tier number one center. He may bust but the pay off if he doesn't will make him far more valuable to this organization for many years.
I wouldnt have complained much if they took him but I side with the Flames decision here. Riskier pick but the top end pay off was worth the risk.
Add to that even if Seiloff does not produce at the junior level, every team needs a Sarich type gritty player which is more where I see Seiloff ending up.
