Yes Oilers getting Puljijarvi sucked. Him playing along side McDavid is going to be quite a combo. That said flames needed a power forward in the worst way. Don't care how they got one, as long as they got one, and they did.

Plus if it had gone down the way you said, i had the feeling flames would have gone with Juolevi over Nylander. Not saying Juolevi is not a good pick, but i would have wanted Nylander.

If you want to feel good about a team getting screwed then look at the Canucks. Not saying Juolevi is not a good pick, but i'm 99% certain that they wanted Dubios. If Columbus had picked Puljijarvi, i truly believe the canucks would have taken Dubios.
