It's as out of line as the McKeens guy putting McLeod 3rd on their list.
What I love about this iteration of Flames management is that they're steel traps and only let Conroy off the leash when they feel comfortable they're not giving too much away.

While I do think that "Brown is their guy" is pure speculation, based on nothing, I do appreciate hearing from those that view these prospects on a regular basis.
Curious as to whether truedetective watched the U18s? I thought Brown was a really dynamic player, someone definitely noticeable, with a seemingly high motor. Was that not the case in the OHL?
