Like last week when someone said that a person within the organization told him that the Flames will be sticking with the top 4 and take who is left.

I'm grasping on to that in the hopes they don't overthink it.

Besides, it's almost universally known now that Edmonton will take Draisaitl anyways leaving the Flames with a Sam, You want to take Ritchie over a Sam? Nobody does, no one. Well maybe Burke. Bt he is just one voice in the group so it doesn't really matter.
I agree to a point. I don't necessarily feel that passing on one of the Sams for Ritchie looks good at this point, but I would still be fine with it. All this is, of course theory and conjecture from fans who are passionate about their team and try to absorb any and all info they can about this draft, but none of us are pro scouts.
