Where is anyone doing anything remotely close to suggesting he'll be a saviour? Talk about an overstatement.
Some people hope he cracks the roster in a 4th line agitator role, something we've been lacking for a long time. It's not really like those are unrealistic expectations.
The guy is big and plays with an edge. He agitates and drops the gloves.
If anyone's excited it's because that's a like-able kind of player regardless of their minor role.
Moon craps all over just about any Flames prospect so that's par for the course, but you guys echoing him seem a tad redundant. I don't see anyone with unrealistic expectations for him considering the kind of player he is.
