If he's there at 16 (long shot but not impossible) do the Flames take him?

Would the Flames pick a 6'2" RH RW sniper? He's essentially ticks the boxes of the type of player organization currently lacks so I don't see how they wouldn't take him if he's available at 16 unless they are in love with another player at that area which given how much they loved Piorier I'm not sure is a good idea to go off the board again. I certainly wouldn't want them to pass him up for for a guy like Robert Thomas that's a ppg player that scored only 16 goals last year as those types of junior stats typically translate to a bottom six NHL forward at best and the Flames have plenty of those types of guys in the organization.
