Actually Brown least fits what the Flames are needing. First off, he is not physical at all and he never will be. More importantly he is a centre and is going to play as one so exactly where is he going to play on our squad? We are set at centre going forward for sure in the top two spots, moving either Bennett or Monahan to the wing would be stupidity. The third line C spot is locked down by Backlund with others like Jankowski challenging. Now you take into factor how many 6'6 skill players you ever see in the NHL go on to have a great career, you don't. Brown is the absolute last guy mentioned in the upper half of the draft we should be considering.
