If that happens, it happens. You think if we don't trade for Eichel this team is going to be picking in the lottery? Its going to be a similar team as the last few years fighting to get into the playoffs. Eichel is a franchise player and I'd argue he has a higher chance of creating success for this franchise than a draft pick that we hope turns out to be good. How many draft picks have the Flames had that can truly be given the tag "franchise player"
