This isn't 2003. You're very unlikely to find a Getzlaf outside of the consensus top 5 ranked players.
This team never makes it easy on themselves, I don't understand why. As a fan it's worrisome..

I doubt the Flames are the only team that have more than a top 4. Just because TSN and CSS say there is a top 4 don't mean ####. People get too caught up in the top list, there are really good players after the supposed top 4. I've looked a draft results since 2000 and lots of players picked later ended up having better careers. It's up to the Flames scouts to decide, not us or TSN.
