He could be our first if the Flames rebound quite a bit and close in on a playoff spot.

I don't think I'd take him if the Flames are picking in the top 7 or 8.

Seems like a bit of a disappointing player skill wise for a top 10 pick. That's why I thought something in the 18-25 range would make more sense for his talent. Can't teach size though. There is a Nick Ritchie feel to him, although I like Gauthier's hands significantly more.
