The way I remember it, and please correct me if I'm wrong, is that the Flames' main target was Dawson Mercer- but they started trading down when Mercer was selected with pick #18 (I think the Flames originally owned pick #19?).
At any rate, the question would indeed be where we put him, as there's really no room for a project right now.
