Silver lining, adding a big right shot up front with skill like Vilardi if he slips or Tippett or one of the big dmen like Hague, Valimaki or Foote would soften the blow a bit. I agree with the earlier post that it's a decent draft... not amazing but OK.
Also I think moving Versteeg, Elliott and Engelland out should bring in a few mid round picks and I feel like unless you are chasing a division title moving UFAs should be a more standard practice for teams that are building.

Don't forget Cale Maker, kid has crazy upside and is a Calgary boy so the Flames scouts are probably very familiar with him. His highlights are pretty awesome but he's a bit of a risk but very high potential if reached. Karlsson like, and just like Karlsson he may fall but he's been getting some buzz as of late. Would be very happy with him. This draft is not weak, it's not filled with generational talents but their will be great prospects the Flames can choose from the 5-10 range if that's where they are placed.
