If you're a team like the Flames and need center depth and you have a choice between a centerman and a defenceman with roughly the same size and nearly one or two rankings difference, I'd take the centerman. For Edmonton, they're small all over. And more than likely, they're better off taking a big good defenceman. They really need to trade away at least two of those small forwards. For Flames, Draisaitl or Reinhart fits the bill.
