So there you go: Flames get a 3rd and the Oilers get an extra pick at the end of the draft.

So, in this scenario do the Oilers get to keep their own third? Or is it surrendered to the Flames and moved to the end of the Round?
I think any instance in which the Oilers draft in the third round is unacceptable. The only way this works is if the pick at the end of the draft is in place of the Oilers's third-round pick.
