Would love the Flames to use one of the thirds and a later pick to try to pick up another 2nd pick

A bunch of goalies went in the span of a few picks. Glad we took the best one according to the scouts.

Flames would have also seen McDonald at the Hockey Canada Program of Excellence camp in Calgary a few weeks ago. Flames were apparently at the camp both to find a goalie coach and for some scouting.

They took almost the entire three minutes to pick Bennett and that was a pretty clear selection.

Still lots of guys I want still there for 54 (and, fingers crossed) 64.

MacInnis goes to the Coyotes. A project but I think he's going to be good

This coverage is terrible. They are talking about guys way too long, like 3 picks occur in the background before they acknowledge them

Better save percentage in a better league and generally ranked higher.

Likely lack the capabilities on NHLN to show a draftlist on the side or something.

Wonder if a little bit of strategy there too.

Lots of teams went goalie there, have to think Flames knew there guy would be gone.

How'd each goalie look when you saw them?

Maxim Lehtunov is my next off the board pick, the Flames could take him in the 6th or with one of their thirds.

Flames have to have at least 1 per draft, right?

Sounds like they've swapped yesterday's dramatic orchestral tunes at the Wells Fargo Center for Earth, Wind and Fire today.

They should probably just shut-up and just show the board. Not a great experience at all watching this draft coverage.
