I still would rather stay put and play with the later picks.

Burke et al want to get bigger, they see we have some nice smaller skilled players, we need beef as Burke put it. It would make sense for the Flames to go after Draisaitl. He is big, extremely skilled and could go up against the bigger centres in our division. Reinhart and Bennet are better suited for the east style of play imo. If we want to compete in our division we need to do everything we can to get bigger and more skilled, check two when it comes to the German kid.
