I think Montreal will go with him, and I wouldn't take the offered package unless he was available at 2. IMO he's suffering from that 1st overall too much focus for too long syndrome.

I agree the Habs are locked in on Wright and they take him. So it comes down to the big winger or speedy center. Obviously I don’t think these guys are on the table but Lafreniere or Stuztle would be dream targets for Tkachuk if the flames decide they can afford both he and Johnny. Otherwise I think the Devils 2nd pick+ is a good target.
Flames keeping Johnny and losing Tkachuk stings but then Toffoli or Mangiapane move to the top line and hopefully the Flames acquire pieces who could be key players in the back half of Johnny’s extension which Cooley could be
