I think that people need to be prepared for the real kick in the nuts scenario that the league expands in 2015. Traditionally, expansion teams have been adorned with the top pick in the draft. If it becomes a 32 team league for the start of the 2015/2016 season, there's a good chance that the Flames will enter next season with ZERO chance of getting Eichel or McDavid. Actually, I bet Bettman is salivating over the chance to give two new teams franchise centremen to activate the fan bases. I for one hope we draft 12th, but ya know, I'm one of those enjoys winning and getting better kind of fans.
