Honestly, I'd be shocked if McLeod becomes a better player than Gautier.
6'2 and 180lbs isn't big enough to be "big" in any league higher than the CHL. 32 goals in 120 games doesn't exactly say "good shot". Not when Gautier has 79 goals in 122 games.
He's fast, all-around, and has good character. But he just doesn't have the offensive awareness to justify a being top 7 pick.
I doubt the Flames will be picking lower than 6th. I think Tkachuk, Dubois, and Chychrun are the 3 we should be debating over.
