Hmm...it seems to me Hamilton is worth more than the 3rd pick ...yet, still not sure why ARZ makes that trade...are they impatient with their rebuild already???

One thing that concerns me about the Flames rebuild is the lack of D prospects ...and since they take longer to develop, the development timelines aren't going to sync up with Monahan, Gaudreau and Bennett...perhaps ARZ would be wise to get Hamilton now, to accompany OEL...then fill in the F positions over the next draft or 2????
