With the free agents we've signed, I don't see any room for our young home grown players to move up, so things may have not changed. Even Baertchi hasn't had a spot opened up for him and Irving's status is in limbo. I guess we'll see in training camp but this summer it doesn't look the Flames have changed their spots. Lack of opportunity will just further establish our reputation around the league that we don't give young players a chance. With that rep, young players will be looking to go somewhere else and it gives me a reason to be spooked.
