The Flames just selected NHL Central Scouting's top ranked North American player, and earned that right playing a pretty entertaining season. Let that sink in for a minute.

This phone stuff just reinforces how lucky we are to have a captain like Giordano, especially through a rebuild.

I'll put him on my shared data plan over rookie camp next week.

I'm over the moon our team picked this guy, considering I thought he'd be gone in the top two.
Now imagine Jankowski turns out the way we hope. The Flames could have the best trio of centers in the NHL!

Very happy with this pick. Seems like a great kid and if he's anything like Killer we will be in very good shape going forward. I would love to see him wear #39 as a tribute to Gilmour playing in Calgary.

So what are the Flames gonna do with McDavid/Eichel next year.... Soon many good centers. No Cammy this year, Bennett likely back to OHL, no way we get better. Teams around us in the standing are improving by adding to their rosters, later stages of rebuild. Glutiny of C's, I'm stoked.

Bennett can play wing as well, such a versatile player.

We don't NEED McDavid or Eichel next year anymore after the Bennett pick. If we can get them, fantastic, but it's going to be fun cheering for this team to win again instead of tanking.
Would love to take a Dman with our 1st round pick next year.

Take either of them if we're in the position to.
The Kings have Stoll, Carter, Richards, Kopitar as higher end centers and they've resolved that problem nicely.
Push one to the wing and continue to be awesome.

Looks like he was Klimchuk's roomy: @NHLFlames First round pick Sam Bennett roomed with @morganklimchuk with Team Canada at the Under 18's.

Any chance of Bennett making the team next year?

Minimal. Kid needs bulk.

Always a chance, but probably slimmer then Sean's chance was
