You guys are Off Topic? Why don't you just say drafting is objectively subjective? Here are my thoughts on how the draft will go down for Calgary. Please weigh in.

1.) Burke keeps #4 and we pick the top player available at that time. (I think we can all agree that there are 5 guys here. SR/SB/DC/LD/AE)
2.) Burke needs to Snow Garth. Getting the #5 pick would be a coup. What would it take? Rumor is Isles open to offers at this time.
3.) If Isles dont make our day then Burke will target teams with 7-14 picks. He will attempt to draft either Viraten, Tuch, Ritchie or Fluery. These players are all Burke type guys. The Leafs, Canes, Jets, Ducks, Yotes, Preds and Stars could all be trade partners. What do ya think? Any deals to be made here? All of these players fill a need we have.
4.) Will sign Cammy with the promise that he will be traded to contender at 2014 draft or 2015 trade deadline. Im bettin on the DUCKS on draft day.
5.) Dont rag on bringing IGGY back home where he belongs. He is the best RW/UFA available. If he wins the cup, why not think about it? That being said, I don't see any big UFA contracts/players being signed this year. Why? We need room for the kids and there is really not much to choose from anyways. Burke will attempt to make his roster changes via trades thru/in the draft. Callahan could be the exception, cause he fits the bill for our current Americanization. Just sayin.
