Right now it is about 50/50 that the Flames #1 pick that they traded will be bottom 15.
In the bottom 15 of 2015 draft
Barzal
Connor
Boesser
That would have far more trade value than Hamonic
Beauvillier
Konecny
Roslovic
That would be very hard for the drafting teams to trade even up for Hamonic.
Washington would not likely trade Samsonov
So that makes it 7/15 .
Cost control? The players out of the draft are cost controlled for 5-6 years at around 1M /year definitely less than 2M Should the team only want them for 5-6 years.
