I was hoping the Flames would have picked Petan at 28 over Klimchuk but given the small stature of Sven and Gaudreau I can understand why they went for a bigger (although not a lot bigger) guy.

Regarding Gillies I thought he looked mediocre at best and downright bad at times for USA. That doesn't mean I think he's going to be a bust. It simply means he had a bad tournament. I don't think this changes anything but he may have to get more accustomed to playing under the spotlight if in fact it was a case of nerves.
