The Calgary Flames made three selections at the 2022 NHL Draft. They ended up leaving Bell Centre with three forwards, the smallest one being listed at 6’2″, and the common thread in addition to size was two-way play.
Following the event, Flames director of amateur scouting Tod Button broke down the picks.
Second round, 59th overall: Topi Ronni:
He’s a probably, we call, a middle-six centre. He’s really responsible positionally and we’re hoping he gains a little more confidence in making plays offensively to add that to his toolkit. But our Finn lives in the city that he plays in, so we feel we knew him really well.
