No scout can definitively say what Ekblad will be at 23. Where does Brodie slot on a team like Los Angeles?

Doughty
Greene
Martinez
Muzzin
Mitchell
Voynov
Regehr

He's probably a 4,5,6 and on the 2nd PP unit? No idea. Brodie's a #2 in Calgary but on a good team is he a top-pairing d-man? If the Flames see Ekblad as the best player in the draft who can anchor our top pairing for the next 10-15 years, then I think they're justified in going after him.

All of this has made for interesting discussion, if nothing else.
