It will be interesting to see what the Flsmes do if they land the Matthews pick. I would like them to explore trading it to Arizona and see how badly they want their homegrown superstar. I suspect ownership there see Matthews as a guy they build the franchise around and could be poised to pay an absolute premium for him (more than any other team typically would give up for a 1st overall)
Hypothetically could the Flames trade thst pick+ a contract or 2 of their choice they want to dump for a package that includes Strome+the yotes 1st+Domi?
Perhaps the Flames add to that deal depending where Arizona picks (currently 7th overall). Instead of Domi maybe the flames get another top prospect from the Yotes? To me Strome+1st is not enough but adding Domi seems like too much.
Either way I think it would be worth exploring if we are lucky enough to get the pick
