You certainly don't trade down if you're Calgary and win the 1st overall selection, however, it's not a disappointment to win 2nd or 3rd for this group considering their situation and positions of strength by comparison. Any of the top 3 picks is a massive win with no empty feeling like teams who lost out of McDavid last season.
The final few weeks is going to irritate me to no avail, knowing 1,2 wins will be the difference between a potential top 3 versus selecting 7,8th.
