It'd be cool if the we could get both Armia and Bartschi with the 13th and 16th picks.

Absolutely. I really, really wanted Armia but didn't think he'd be available. Bartschi was really my second pick, realistically so I'm not too disappointed.

Gord Miller is an idiot, saying more times than not we do not select players in the 1st round.

I thought I had misheard that portion, but he definetly said we've have more often than not been picking in the 1st round... which is entirely false.

Would have preferred Armia, but I am happy with Bärtschi as well. Picked him in our mod-mock for the Flames, too. :D

I wonder how well he'll mesh with Backlund. Fin/Swedish (yes, Backlund is both) with a Swiss on his left?

....Can we still get Armia? Come on. Please? Please Regehr? Please? <3

Note: I see this as a possible line around 2013:2014 assuming Backlund's around. I think it'd be awesome.

despite his average size, don't hold that against him, he's a good goal scorer and point producer....Jay's right, the Flames need to draft skill, and Sven will give you that when he's NHL ready. good pick!
