I think the funniest timeline is one where Tij is on the board, Conny sends Jarome up, and they pick someone else. I would really enjoy being trolled like that.

(Even better if they then immediately trade 28 + their highest retained 1st next year top 5 or 10 protected to Jersey for 10, and pick Tij, and give an interview about how fun it was trolling us).

Tij Iginla will be a Flame tonight.

Hoping Iggy is telling teams he will play in Australia if they draft him.

I expect the Jets are holding out for something better for McGroarty. Maybe getting Mateychuk out of Columbus.

We're going to get a lot more Bettman this draft than usual methinks.

I may have mentioned this a few days ago
So many teams want a piece of the top 10.

Carolina wanting in scares me.

Well the Flames have invited the older brother of Zayne Parekh to their development camp if that means anything.

Carolina leap frogging the Flames doesn’t sit well with me.
Very strong draft pedigree and likely means they’re eying someone the flames likely want as well.

Demidov if he slips?
Tij?
Silayev perhaps

Button was interviewed on CTV News this morning. Said almost zero chances Iginla will be available at #9. Also said, FWIW, that all top-10 rated players are really solid reliable picks.

I fear that Flames will go off the board this draft. They typically do.
