Really bolster the top 6 that way, and with any kind of bounce back from Huberdeau, Kadri and Markstrom, this team will contend for the division IMO

Konecny seems to be this years Hamonic. Previously he was known by name mostly and now that he's been hyped everyone is a Konecny expert and wants him. He's been a good player leading to this season, and was better this season being a ppg guy (albeit with less games played), but he's 26. He is more or less what he is. This talk about him getting better is marginal. I hope the Flames do not go this direction and instead aim to get this years picks to draft young guys. A young team like Ottawa or Buffalo could use him, but the Flames need to get younger than him (and not pay a premium to get him when he's hyped).
