If nothing changes, tonight, the Canadian will be speaking in 5th and 21st place.
But as we know, this is not a guarantee either.
That said, like last year, we should expect to see some clubs call Kent Hughes for the availability of the 5th pick… And that’s what the Flames did.
In fact, the Flames tried to obtain the 5th selection of the draft, but the CH GM was not interested in the return that would have obtained in the transaction.
I wonder what Craig Conroy’s (DG) offer looked like…
The information comes from Anthony Di Marco, who covers league activities for The Fourth Period:
Did Conroy try to bring Nazem Kadri’s name into the discussion?
The question is valid…
Because it would be on the market, in Calgary:
The Flames have the 9th overall pick in the draft.
That said, the training would like to go up…
And here, it would be logical to believe that Craig Conroy has Tij Iginla in his sights.
After all, there is a world where Iginla isn’t available when the Calgary organization takes the podium to announce its pick.
There are obvious links between Tij Iginla and the Flames…
Because his father was captain of the club for several years.
But the Canadiens, who hold two first-round picks, could also use their selections to move up (again) on the board.
At least that’s what Sébastien Goulet believes:
A lot of
– I have the impression that Kent Hughes will move again.
– I would like that!
– It’s going to be special.
– Anyway.
