I kid.

What are your thoughts on Kole Lind CG?
I'm awake now. Makes things only slightly better.

Lind would be fine if we had a mid second round pick and he was available.

I've watched him and Dube together and Lind is not on the same level as him. He's a decent prospect in his own right, but it's one of those problems where the Flames aren't really in a good spot in the draft where it makes sense to take him. If the Flames were picking at 22-25, then sure he'd be a decent candidate along with a small handful of other guys.

If the Flames traded down and got something important for doing so and selected Lind, that would be fine as long as one of the good prospects wasn't available at 16.
