Nice!
Thought they could have taken him in the second. Seems like this could be a steal especially considering we got this pick with a trade down

the big question is can the Flames teach him how to play defence
High offensive upside though

Yeah, Kylington sounds like a good comp.
High offensive upside but big defensive question marks.
Bob McKenzie had him at #33.

The tl;dr is he is a great offensive player and a disaster in his own zone right?
Pair this kid up with Kuznetsov and profit

Not bad. Poirier looks like an offensive stud. Can we just look at Buttons list from here on out?

Not much to add here...but:
Why can't any of these guys, just by chance, ever be right handed FFS?
Welcome to the Flames. I hope you become a star.

picked a defensive minded defenseman at 50, now an offensive minded defenseman at 72. Fantastic! If only one of them was a righty

All I can get
Move him up to the wing
