Ranking an entry draft this early is a fools game, plain and simple.

I think they got the best player in the draft with Sam Bennett, that alone is exciting. Hunter Smith is an interesting prospect, passed over last year but seemed to be ranked high by all the various outlets and obviously by the Flames themselves.

They hadn't taken a goalie since 2012 so you knew one was coming, would have prefered it to be outside the top two rounds since goalies are flakey but considering the run that happened on goalies in the 2nd round, hard not to understand why the Flames took their guy.
