I didn't care for the idea of swapping all of our first rounders last year for #1, as the Flames have too many holes and not enough organizational depth to make that kind of move(and I really liked Mackinnon). The proposed deal is similar and I would oppose it for similar reasons. Giving up too much for a player that is unlikely to be a generational talent. As decent as the progress has been, we still have a long way to go. I don't think one guy in this draft is going to do it.
