How is this deal any different? As a rental are you suggesting Hanifin should have fetched more than Chycrun? If you look at that deal alone, Conroy did better to land a player that is said to be a 4/5 potential now in Miromanov than whatever value another pick may have had. The only factor would be kicking the draft picks down the road somewhat more, but that is a bit of a plus anyway as this draft is not exactly looking stout and the Flames already have a lot of picks this year.

Wasn’t the first round pick like 12th overall? A lot of it has to do with the conditions for me. I’m not a fan of them. I’m willing to acknowledge they could work in our favour. But it could just as easily be a pick you wait to make in the 26 draft thats in the 25-32 range. Not a fan of that.
