But it’s entirely possible that scout lists have bundles of 5+ players that they consider the same level. “Just take the high pick” doesn’t make any sense in that context, does it? So they trade down 4 spots to a team who had 1 player on their list at that spot, and the Flames would still be “taking their high pick”.
