Yes, and part of that reason is because he only gets ~8 minutes a game. That's not an place I want my top prospect developing in for the next two seasons.
A lot of Flames fans wanted Collberg (like myself) with our first pick last draft, but I'm pretty glad we passed on that one now. He was averaging less than 4 minutes a night in the SEL before he was sent down this season. You can't develop players with that type of ice time.
