Can you say the players available at 7 would be more of a sure thing? I would argue the odds are far in Murray's favor of being more of a sure thing as he's playing right now in the NHL playoffs and just won his first playoff series. Any player the Flames draft could be Monahan but the odds more likely point to Baertschi, Poirier, or Klimchuk in guys that take time to develop and may never pan out.
