At the end of the day, they’re both good prospects and the Flames seem to have done well at the draft this year. But like any other year, you have to give it some time until you can grade it. I think Morin ends up as a top four guy at the very least. If Suniev ends up better, that isn’t a bad thing in the slightest

Didn't Makar play in the AJHL when he was drafted 4 overall? Maybe some guys are going the other leagues than the CHL to get better and keep their college eligibility open longer. Kind of like drafting kids from the USHL.
