Just an opinion, but if Johnny Hockey as rumoured is truly going to want to turn pro next year. I would save our last remaining roster contract spot and reward a kid like Johnny. I just think that the goodwill you have created and this kid has paid it back in spades deserves a pro contract. I know why when you could do that July 1, but it would be the goodwill factor of we are confident you will be a Calgary Flame next year. Rather than take a chance on an old rickety kneed centerman which doesn't get you to the playoffs anyways.
