## Resource

Calgary Flames eye a historic 35th overall pick in the draft — their first time holding that spot since trading MacKenzie Weegar to Utah. While it’s been a borderline first-round spot since 2000, it’s rarely produced superstars — just three All-Stars and zero Hall of Famers. The Flames have never drafted here before, though they once controlled a 35th pick that became Marc-Édouard Vlasic. Past picks include Matt Cullen (3 Cups), Jamie Langenbrunner (2 Cups), and Sebastian Aho (offensive force for Carolina). Of 57 players taken 35th, only two-thirds even reached the NHL — not a goldmine, but still a place where solid talent can emerge.
