If a team offered a top-3 pick for Parekh, I would probably jump on it- and the 4th-overall will get you McQueen. It's a conundrum, because Parekh could be our shot at having a truly elite #1 D-man, but we have a big logjam of quality prospects on the backend....

Not for me. Flames may have lots of solid prospects on the backend, but that #1 offensively elite defensive prospect is so important. He went 9th, but other than Levshunov and Yakemchuk, who was a bit of a surprise where he was drafted, all of the elite defenceman fell last year, in a d-heavy draft year.
Let the kid develop.
