We would have still had the picks from the Hamonic trade.

We still would’ve had the Tkachuk and Valimaki picks, though they probably would’ve been bigger.

And we’d have Nathan MacKinnon and Johnny Gaudreau on our top line together for 15 years.

What a dreadful thought.
It’s silly because it’s make believe.

How do you know any of that plays out the way you have laid it out? How do you know what moves the Flames would have made had they acquired MacKinnon? If they did is Feaster still the GM? Do they trade their 2015 1st for Hamilton or someone else? Do they win the cup? Do they miss the playoffs for 4 straight years? What else happens in this alternate universe?
