FlamesNation Roundtable: the 2021 NHL Draft

It’s draft season! The 2021 NHL Draft is almost upon us and to commemorate our favourite weekend of the year, we’ve reconvened the roundtable (for the second time in a week) to discuss our hopes and expectations for the weekend.

Who do you want the Flames to select at 13th overall?

Craig: Suppressing my affection for Cole Sillinger until the next question, I think Russian forward Fyodor Svechkov would make a promising investment for the Flames. Gifted with razor-sharp awareness in all three zones that makes him deceptive with the puck and dependable without, Svechkov is one of the best defensive forwards of the draft class.
