If you're looking for some in depth draft analysis I would suggest watching the YouTuber DraftDynasty. He puts some effort into his videos and gives you a decent look into the players he profiles.
I'll admit though it is a little tough cutting through his francophone accent but he does good work.
Definitely a tool for a fans couch scouting.

I'm also good with Calgary going after Dmitri Zlodeyev with their 4th round San Jose pick, or even reaching with their second if the winds are blowing that way. Did some research on him, and Craig Button has proposed marriage.
Ridly Greig is a player i'd love the Flames to draft. He'll most likely go early to mid 2nd round, so highly unlikely we land him. He's a pest with skill and would be a welcomed addition to our team.
(He's also a local boy coming from Lethbridge)

If any of those 4 are available at our 2nd round pick, I think you jump on them. Wiesblatt would be a cool grab. Local kid, great boots, right shooting, good competitive player. Even if they have to move a later pick to jump up a few spots, Wiesblatt is right at the top of my wish list for the 2nd round.
Walking away from the draft with Zary and Wiesblatt would be outstanding.
Later round guy I'd take a shot at would be Egor Sokolov. Big sniping Russian who is an overager in the Q who I'd happily take in the 4th, maybe even the 3rd.
Popped off an NHLe of 38 this past year.

If we're talking about late picks, I'd love to see Calgary go after James Hardie with their 4th. One of the best shooters in the whole OHL with sneaky good offensive production. Honestly reminds me of Neal when he was in Dallas.

Does anyone have a good scouting report on Mavrik Bourque?
He's only 5'10", which is not ideal size, but everything else is pretty darn good. He plays a great 200 ft game, skates very well, exceptional passer. 71pts in 49 games for Shawinigan, which is nothing to sneeze at, even if it is the Q. Not overly physical, but he's competitive, and will take and give when he needs to.

I think that Brisson will be an absolute steal. This year, he has 1.31ppg in the USHL-compared to Kyle Connor at 1.42ppg in his draft year. He's a fantastic playmaker, skates well, and is already a great defensive forward with a little bite to his game. Wouldn't be surprised if he went late in the first.
Brisson's teammate, Sam Colangelo, is another name I would throw out there. He has virtually the same numbers as Brisson, but he is 6'2". Good skater, good shot, not known for his defense like Brisson. Sean Farrell is on that team as well.

Always love some of the names in the late rounds like Robert Robbie Fromm-Delorme. I actually think there is a real good chance the Flames can get Alex Laferriere.

Sign me up for a ride on the Wiesblatt train!
Ozzy Wiesblatt is a lightning fast Winger with a high scoring IQ, and a total willingness to be a pain in the rear

Wiesblatt seemingly projects as a middle-six forward along the lines of one of the Tkachuk siblings

Someone sent this same question to Cruikshank's mailbag today. Was that you?
Sokolov is the type of player that every team would want it sounds like. I'd take a late round flyer on him.

Not sure where to put this but Pronman has been doing his NHL organizational rankings on the Athletic and counting down the various teams systems. He is down to 19 and I am surprised we have yet to see the Flames in the mix. Valimaki and Wolf must be what is keeping this tea out of the bottom 5.
