Calgary Flames draft day


Well, it is that time of the year. Time to make a fool of myself. It seems to happen every year, yet here I am doing it again. This year's draft is a total craps shoot because of the pandemic. It's hard to find info on the players. So here is my guess. I am going on the positions they need to fill, not personalities. 


First Round 

Fabian Lysell - Right Wing


Fabien is a highly-skilled forward who can skate through a phone booth. His puck-handling skills are amazing. He is a game-changer. He is a playmaker who can score goals at will. The Flames badly need a top-six right winger for years; he is the answer to Flames fans' prayers.


Second Round

45 Samuel Helenius - Centre


Samuel is a big centre who loves getting his nose dirty. He loves the rough game and is willing to fight for the puck around the boards to get his garbage share. Samuel also has an excellent wrist shot. Flames could use his size at centre, as we lack size in the pivotal centre spot.


For the next picks, I am just going to list the names of the players.


Third Round

77 Kirill Kirsanov - Defence


Fourth Round

84 Aleksi Heimosalmi - Defence 


Fifth Round

141 Marc Lajoie - Defence


Sixth Round

173 Zack Stringer - Left Wing


Seventh Round 

205 Paul Davy - Centre
