And let's just stop giving Montreal 1st round picks.
I'd love to see Conroy make a move for NJ's #10 pick so the Flames can grab 2 players. I know the talk was that NJ was willing to move next year's 1st, but maybe a less complicated trade involving Markstrom and the #10 is possible.

If the Flames could snag a forward from the Helenius/Iginla/Catton group and a Dman from the Parekh/Buium/Yakemchuk group? That'd be swell.
