Pick players that will play in Calgary and make Calgary better. There is no win in picking a player that refuses to be in Calgary and never provides anything to Calgary other than the hollow victory of claiming we drafted an all star player. Are the Flames better because of this pick? Nope. That's all that matters. But derpity derptity derp??? ####ing derp.
I mean how do you know when they interviewed Fox that he wasn't saying all the right things? You are painting it like they interviewed him and he told them to eff off and he only wanted to sign with the Rangers. Fox was picked somewhere close to where he was expected to go. I'd rather get an asset out of a third round pick than a bust. Do you also want to start drafting Hunter Smith's and Keegan Kanzig's over skilled players cause of their size?
