"New Era" version of a nightmare is a joke. I would gladly be happy if those scenarios happened for the flames. Nylander should be picked at 6th and flames could do a lot worse than Fleury in net.
This is my nightmare:
Draft at 6th: Flames GM takes size to literally and reaches for Gauthier
Flames don't trade for a goaltender and realize that Reimer has the upper hand and ends up signing in Toronto for over $5 million a season. Flames come back with Ramo/Ortio tandem.
Flames sign Okoposo to a $6 million / 6 year term
Smid does not go on LTR and sits in pressbox for season. 10 teams want Wideman but he won't waive his NMC.
