Short of some Treliving trickery or van/edm picking a D man we pick nylander.
Which will be awesome. Nylander certainly fills a need and I have never bought into the theory your skill players have to be big. Look at what the Hawks have done recently. Perhaps the two biggest teams in the NHL in LA and Anaheim got bounced in the first rnd. A much more physical team in Washington got bounced by Pittsburgh. A small TB team is tearing it up in the playoffs. I would like the Flames to add some more size in the bottom 6 but your top 6 needs to be skill above all else.
