You won't get a guy like Klimchuk around 30 this time but for sure it'll be nice to have a pick around that spot. For example last year the Flames wanted badly to grab Madison Bowey in the 2nd round but unfortunately had traded that 36 pick and couldn't swing a deal to recoup it.
In hindsight would have been a great pick too as Bowey has progressed extremely well this year.
Although its a weak year both at the top and depth wise in this draft, whats nice is that there are two guys at the very top, so if you finish last you pick first or second and get one of them for sure. Would be a good year to manage to finish last.
