Look what Fox got us in that trade. Sure I'd prefer a Norris winner but Lindholm might have the best contract in the league.
Yeah I agree with you. Always draft the BPA, except I think the desirability of Calgary the city to Americans is a reality and the Flames will just need to be honest with their American prospects and move them out before they get a chance to leave for nothing in return. If that means you have to move out a top 10 American born player prematurely (after their first deal after their ELC), you do it because that's your situation.
