Question wasn't to me but ...
I'd prefer the 1st round pick, roster player and prospect model over two "B" prospects.
Now the 1st round pick could turn out worse than a "B" prospect, in fact it likely equals more often than not.
But the 1st has additional value (in my mind) in moving up, or moving for established players that are better than a "B" prospect. Plus I see the Flames amateur scouting as an organizational plus skill, so maybe they can turn that into a "A-" or "B+" prospect.
