I personally would prefer to use the pick. Tkazhuk, Dubois, and Chychrun are all players that I would prefer over Drouin at this stage.
The last time a top ten pick was dealt for a roster player it netted a young, franchise-level goalie. Bishop is not that, and Drouin is a huge wildcard right now. If the Flames are dealing that pick, then I would be targeting a goalie like Petr Mrazek, Frederik Andersen, Connor Hellebuyck, or John Gibson.
