Obviously the younger RHS player is preferred, that's off point though. Ppl ask why would CGY want McLeod. The answer is pretty clear if you look.
Center depth isn't great, you're gearing up to move the only RHS C because he isn't re signing, you need to replace that players PK , face off and 200ft play. All of which McLeod does. Who cares if he's 26. Why is that so important, that's still young even in today's game.

A 26-year-old who never broken 30 pts? We can go sign someone to fill this role. We don't need to spend assets to do so. The Flames have zero elite players right now. They're going to need as many picks as they can get to try and find some top end skill. We're not building a contender taking on another team's 3rd liners.
