the situation i could see, is the flames trading up to get a 2nd pick inside that 35th and under tier of players that many people have referred to.
the coyotes pick at 3rd then also have chicago's 1st rounder from the vermette trade (anywhere from 27th to 30th), then select again at 32nd.
If the flames have a guy they really like that's still on the board i could see them packaging up picks 52 and 53 to grab one of those coyote picks.

That would be great if it worked out that way. I'm really excited for this Flames draft. I think it could be a big one.
