They would be ranked lower if they didn't do a good job of drafting as of late. All good when you consider the underlying reasons why this team is not highly regarded for its' prospect pool - lots of graduates, don't pick at the top of the draft, and 2 recent 1st round picks were traded.

The reason that the prospect depth is usually talked about a lot is because the Flames, while being able to extract very good value based on their draft slots, haven't had many picks or high picks in the last while.
Thanks, those are fair and valid points I hadn't thought of.

Flames must have someone they like here and got the extra 6th to have a couple cracks at them.

That or they'll use the free pick on a goalie

Buffalo drafts William Von Barnekow Lofberg. That's going to be tough to fit on the back of a jersey.

So the Neal - Lucic trade shakes down as Neal (buyout candidate) to Edmonton for Lucic, Cameron Whynot and Jack Beck. Wonder if Oiler fans still think they won that trade?

7 players drafted so far, all but one shoot left.

What a joke.

I’d love to see the Flames take a flyer on Ryan St. Louis with the last of our picks. Just for fun.

I wouldn’t mind Hunter Strand here. Good draft year production in the USHL.

Ottawa: Chandler Romeo.


Could there be a better name available at that spot?
