6. Calgary Flames: Carson Carels, D

Despite the Flames falling a bit after the draft lottery, they will still add an outstanding prospect to their pipeline.

In a loaded defense class, the Flames have nearly the pick of the litter, and we think they'll nab Carson Carels. The Prince George defender has excellent size and good mobility, and he's put up some really impressive offensive numbers this year.

Seeing how his game translates to the NHL will be interesting, but he has a fairly safe floor.
