Edit... looks like I posted the big Fata.

Anyway, I liked the video and it's an interesting video if you have the time to listen to it. He has a lot of praise for the draft in general and thought the Flames nailed at least 7/10 of the picks and gives it an A to an A+. The only criticisms he had was taking the two overagers. He was surprised they took Gridin late in the first, but after consideration, likes the pick.

I know some people don't like that he relies heavily on his model, but also throws in some eye tests. Personally I like that approach and think he is a really sharp guy.

His top 10 Flames prosepcts:

1. Parehk
2. Zary
3. Coronato
4. Hunter B.
5. Wolf
6. Basha
7. Gridin
8. Honzek
9. Pelletier
10. Mews

Honorable mentions:

Zarubin
Misa
Poirier
Battaglia

The only thing I would disagree with is Zary. I think he is graduated.
