Agreed.
To add to the attraction for Mercer, it looks as though there are 3 C’s at the top of this years draft (top 10), Celebrini, Lindstrom, and Catton,…. I think.
In other words, especially in the case of Celebrini, the Flames could very well not have a chance at any of them.
Coupled with Conroy’s public statement that they’re looking for young players who might be buried in other teams org charts certainly points towards Mercer and perhaps Lundell.
