Granlund is no more a bust than Bärtschi is at this point. Small players tend to have a hard time in the NHL and they have to work very hard to be able to make space for their skills. As a Flames fan you should know extremely well that you don't want to give up on them too soon.

Baertschi isn't close to the bust Granlund is right now, Granlund is nothing but a PP guy in both the NHL and AHL, he has zero physical game in him at all where at least Sven trys hard and plays all zones.
With ease, Sven will be a better NHL'er...the kid is full of "hart"
