Indeed the Flames prospect base is not good now but that pick, whether we have it or not, won't change that much either way.
That being said, I anticipate a pretty quiet deadline in part because this team, with all of its existing components is really humming. Do you risk disruption to that?

Only if a big injury occurs in the forward group, especially in the top 6. Otherwise, I would be more than happy to keep our first round pick. Treliving knows what he is doing, so I do not doubt if we do make a trade it's for the better.
