I don't think anyone on CP realistically thinks they know more than NHL scouts, aside from maybe the actual NHL scouts that lurk on CP. But if CP is expected to vote in line with where the Flames drafted their prospects then what's the point of these polls? It'd be a lot quicker to just sort all our prospects by the round in which they were drafted in, so Gillies has no business being ranked where he is because when the Flames drafted him there were other guys picked ahead of him.
My point is that this is an opinion poll, most Flames fans aren't on top of the development of every Flames prospect. So don't take things too seriously, we're all just guessing -- as if the Flames scouts aren't as well...
