But taking Brown or Keller at 6 just seems a stretch.

How far away is Keller deemed to be? Would he only spend 1 year at Boston college? Or would he need longer?
Just a silly way to look at it imo. Every spot behind 6th is worse pick then the 6th.

If the Flames believe that Brown or Keller are best available players then who cares? They're all top 10 prospects. Would it matter if you take one at 6th instead of 8th or 9th? doubt it. Take the best available player unless you have 2-3 guys that you like and you can move down couple spots.
