You just don't see those types of players taken in the first round very often (if at all).

Is this years draft deep enough? Thought this was a weak year and that kids in a longer term development arc would be a 1st round priority. Kids 5'11 (unless Sportsnet messed that tidbit of info up) and 140 lbs. Just needs a couple years of bulking up. Even better is he's projected as a second rounder. If the Flames do in fact get Ekblad that means Tkatchev would be there early in the second.
