My guess right now would be Reinbacher. Most draft projections have him going in the top ten but with so much offensive talent available, I wonder if a guy that is projected to be a solid top four defenseman but not likely to be an eilte top pairing guy ends up dropping. I get the feeling draft reports are putting him in the top ten just because “surely someone has to take a defencemen in the top ten - right?” But it would not surprise me if most teams are not eager to do it at the expense of picking Yager, Moore, Cristall, Perreault, Sale, Danielson or Barlow.

The question is if the flames should take him if he drops? I tend to be biased and prefer high offence forwards with early first round picks so I would rather he go to someone else before the flames pick. Especially since I doubt he would make it past the flames since they are lacking in defence prospects.

As i see it if we can get three picks before 25 we can walk away with two high end centers. To my mind it would be crazy to miss out on a center heavy draft where picks into the mid twenties have star potential in a position thats almost impossible to fill. This is a once in a decade draft dont screw it up by oicking up a defencemen until the second round
