I'd rather the Flames keep it as simple as possible then edge closer to complications so that they can sign a 23 year old guy whose development curve in the NCAA was effectively flat in terms of statlines.

What role did he play in the NCAA? Was he on the top line, did he move up through the ranks, was he a shutdown forward? Just curious to know the context of his statistics.
How did you feel he performed during the camp? Was it obvious from observing his play that he displayed more maturity as a hockey player or moreso as a professional?
I think if you could answer these questions, it would help a lot in respect to the arguments you're presenting. We'd all get another informed perspective.
