Not that I think the Flames should go that route but the kid had one less point than William Nylander did, and had one more point in the U-18s.
Of course points aren't everything but the kid has done well enough that it doesn't seem like a stretch that he could be in that group of guys that could go in the 7-10 range.
Don't really feel like it would be the Flames trying to be smarter than everyone at all - think it's more that this draft is a crap shoot outside the top 3
