For sure, but he's been real slow developing and there was some doubt as to whether he'd ever get there.
Also as mentioned you can bet he'd have taken a lot more flack on a Canadian team and the pressure and who knows if he'd have developed.
Reinhart may be the safer pick in terms of getting a top-line player.
Hopefully the Flames wind up in a position to even get one of the two, they never have picked in the top 5 before so going to stay skeptical until it happens.
