Bourque was a 1st and has played well since he was drafted. The odds of drafting a NHLer in the 2nd vs a late first isn't dramatically different. Take Bourque and a lessor pick IMO.

If you can get both fine, but I doubt you can and the Flames draft well past the 1st round. Just keep adding bullets and NHL ready prospects.
Bourque>1st.

If Dallas is reluctant to give up a first, they are not giving up Bourque.
