The Calgary Flames own the 9th overall pick at the 2024 NHL Draft. With very little scouting consensus – aside from a general sense that three players will be long gone when they select – Ryan dives into his preference list for the Flames’ selection at 9th overall.

Great vid, Ryan. Thx for always making me look like I know what I'm talking about with my friends.
Really enjoy your perspective, can't wait for draft day and what happens and your take on it.
If Tij somehow makes it to 9 then it's a no brainer you select him. I don't believe he will be and to trade up for Tij the cost would be too much.. I really like Carter Yakemchuk if he's still there as well.. Both guys mentioned have Calgary connections and check the boxes on what Flames want for the future
I have a feeling there will be a high pick or two in play this year, and there will still be a few surprises as to who goes where.
Tijj
Maybe the owners will decide to leave Tij for the Flames for the hype it will generate.
Awesome breakdown Pike. So glad you took the time to put this video together for us 👍
Cole Eiserman is likely the best realistic target
You misssed Beckett Sennecke. Arguably has a higher upside than almost every forward you mentioned. Look for him to go top 5-10 in many scenarios
“lowest ceiling highest floor” oh okay so basically book it that helenius is gonna be our pick
You select who is ever there such a silly question
