The problem is that the Flames won't have room for all these guys that could make the big team. I think Baertschi, Horak, Bouma, Reinhart and Knight all should have a shot and get a long look with the Flames but it's unlikely that the Flames would keep all 5 (especially if they draft a NHL ready player as well). In my opinion, Baertschi is a lock and Horak and Bouma should be as well based on previous play and if they perform well at camp. Knight should probably start with them as well, so it gets pretty crowded.
It all depends on what other moves the Flames make but personally I hope that if the Flames add any more NHL roster players (like David Jones) that they sound out one or two the other way, or trade some roster players for prospects/picks. They need a good mix of veterans/young players on both clubs (Heat and Flames).
It'll be an interesting camp from both a Heat and Flames perspective.
