M&G's Top 25 Under 25: #11 - Morgan Klimchuk

Three first round picks was unprecedented for the Calgary Flames, but it sure made the 2013 NHL draft a lot of fun. Of course, the further down the first round you go, the less valuable those picks become. Having traded Jarome Iginla to a Stanley Cup contender, the pick the Flames got back for him was never going to be particularly great.

That doesn't mean it couldn't be well-utilized, though. With the pick they got for Iginla, the Flames selected a kid who had grown up watching him: Morgan Klimchuk, himself from Calgary.
