The problem is you took my comment out of the context. I did not once say losing that 6th rounder might break our team. I am just saying too bad we traded our 6th round pick for Lane McDermid, which from the time of the trade I didn't think we needed. The trade happened after we got rid of someone with similar or better trait in Jackman. I thought that McDermid doesn't make any sense at all. Anyways it's over and done with and Flames will move on.
Then i responded to someone about just a 6th round pick and he might not play in the NHL or just be buried in the AHL. I just mentioned that you cannot count those 6th rounder out since there are some late rounders who had success in the NHL before. I am not saying the 6th rounder that we lost might be a difference maker later on. Just saying you cannot count them out.
