The less significant Flames trade on the second day of the draft, almost forgettable given the significance of the other trade, was a straight swap of fourth round picks: the Flames traded their 2019 fourth rounder for Montreal’s 2018 fourth rounder. Without a pick in the fifth round, the Flames made sure they got their man in Milos Roman, a productive import WHLer whose injury-shortened season damaged his draft stock.
The 6’0″, 187 lb. Slovakian centreman has been praised for his high hockey IQ and solid play, which is probably why the Flames couldn’t wait to pick him up.
