When you're targeting a specific player, you have to get a spot 2-3 spots higher than you think he will go, or you risk not getting him.
Moving up into the top 4 from 16 would have cost a TON if even possible with the assets the Flames had
In hindsight Makar is obviously #1 but at that time how do you get into the top 4 to select him?

Teams aren't giving away top 5 draft picks
