I've seen the table before, thank you.

The difference between the 3rd overall pick and 5th overall pick is the 28th overall in pick value

In an average draft, yes. But there are no average drafts. You have to look at the quality of players available in this particular year. I don't know where the scouts think the top tier ends. If they think it's McKenna and then four roughly equal players after him, then the difference between 3rd and 5th is not that important to them. If they think it drops off a tier after the top 3 players, then it is. I don't know, neither do you, and at this point, the scouts themselves don't know because it's early in the year and they are still out there scouting.

Neither you nor Conroy nor anyone else can make the Flames draft 1st overall, and you know it.
As for the difference between 3rd and 5th, if you think giving Kadri away now will make the team CERTAIN to finish last, and keeping him till the deadline makes them CERTAIN to finish no lower than 30th, the onus is on you to show your work. You have not even begun to do this. You have merely ignored the question and shouted louder about the value of picks.
