Sven found his game post trade deadline. I'm being optimistic and saying Sven is going to be that player we saw after the trades.

Sven never really found his game. The Flames were trying to tank which opened the door for their young players to get a lot more ice time than they normally would and pretty well all his points were assists and he wasn't that noticeable most games. I'm not trying to rain on the parade of Sven Baertschi but he wasn't really very good. I expect him to be better in the coming season but I don't think he's going to be amongst the rookie scoring leaders as he's going to take a couple of years before he breaks through.
