At that, the Flames got some NHL games out of Okhotiuk, which the average 5th-round pick doesn't. We'll just have to see what Colton Roberts amounts to.
I can understand what Conroy was doing. He wanted to reload the system with defence prospects, and deliberately got more than he had room for. He knew some would bust, but not which ones. Okhotiuk was the price of doing business with imperfect information.
