The Flames are almost certainly at a stage where they can pick BPA outside of the goaltending position. They have 2 wingers that look like they will be top 6 forwards in the system and they have at most 2 dmen that look like they will be top 4.
Sandman could probably find where McKenna ranks for all time U-18 PPG in the NCAA but it is not 14th. Might not even be 14th this century. There is a clear difference in production so far this year. Add on that offence is pretty much all McKenna does (think McDavid/Draisaitl levels of commitment to the defensive zone) and there is definitely cause for concern.
