Fits a position and skill the Flames need but I don't think he fits the character they want. I would be surprised if they took him

[Ashasx]

lol @ his reaction to his dad's reaction

[Notorious Honey Badger]

Minny by way of Vancouver?

[The Professor]

I kinda got uncomfortable when Burke was talking about Reilly like he was a commodity, while the poor kid was sitting right there.

3 picks to survive. I'm liking either Grigerenko or Dumba being on the board. Which is fata'ing awesome.

[HPLovecraft]

Reilly looked incredibly nervous.

I think we got it. You've mentioned it about five times now.

This is a Flames forum. Any reason why you're posting the same thing about the Jets over and over and over?

Ya character will be a huge issue, and so it should be! I just hate seeing some of the other team's depth at C and the Flames complete lack of high quality Centremen. With that said we do need to add organizational depth in terms of D prospects as well... :/

Not feeling a lot of these kids' reactions. I know it's hard to judge in a short moment, but maybe it's because they expected to be drafted where they are, so the element of surprise isn't there, which dulls the excitement a little?

Please, this is a Flames forum, preface your posts with the jets or something. I scrolling on my phone wondering who the hell keeps thinking the Flames are picking that soon.

Flames forum.

Burke crushed him lol. 'I told him no ball caps, step in line junior!'

Like how Couturier was on the board for them last year?

[Badgers Nose]

After seeing faksa's story - living on his own at 11 years old to play hockey in another city - i tjink he would be a great character guy.

Would you be excited to go to any of the first five franchises that were drafting?

[JurassicTunga12]

Hampus Lindholm to Anahiem

[Caged Great]

[dieHARDflameZ]
