Had the Flames kept that pick, Barzal, Connor and Chabot (the next three guys taken) would have been more likely who they would have selected. So, while that's a bit of a "what if", there's an argument to be made. I'd argue that Barzal pretty much solves every problem the roster has.

I really don't think you can judge a trade based on what the actual pick traded became as a player. You need to judge it on the value of the pick given up at the time it was given up.
We have zero idea who the Flames would have picked.
Picking Barzal wouldn't have solved the salary cap problem we have, only made it worse LOL.
