Voted Brown but I know it should be Nylander.

Going with Chychrun (though I can see the Flames taking Nylander on draft day). I think the defenseman checks the boxes the Flames need/want. Big physical D, hard shot. Wasn't long ago this guy was considered a top 5 pick, but has clearly had a bad year. This could be a steal.

I just don't think Nylander has elite offensive upside. From the videos I've seen, Keller has quite a bit more skill. Nylander has talent, don't get me wrong. But I think he projects as a second liner, not a first liner. Second line forwards are not worth 6th overall picks IMO. I also doubt the Flames are looking for someone like Nylander, unless they truly feel he's the BPA.

I voted Brown, because based on his attributes, I can see him having the most trade value in the future. Juolevi and Keller were close for me too.

Keller. Been saying it the last time or two this thread popped up, nothing's changed my mind. Size is not remotely a concern when you have this level of elusiveness awareness and skill. He's basically a middle point between Bennett + Johnny. The idea of having at least one those three on the ice for 45 of 60 minutes will force teams to match to us.
