The elite talent is going to come from drafting in the top ten for 3-5 years and Flames have got that covered.

If we could gurantee a couple top 10 picks over the next few seasons I would feel alot better about signing Hanifin.
Unfortunately, I think signing him helps keep us away from top 10 picks.
I think hanifin and lindholm get you around a 1st+2nd+3rd worth of value each. Tanev is probably around a 2nd+4th worth of value.
That's just pick value, could be prospects coming back instead like a lohrei, bourque or lambert for example.
We lose alot of value not trading him.
Drafting is all playing the odds. Higher picks have better odds. So does having more picks.
