My list of guys that I think will play 40 or more NHL games by the end of the 2014-15 season:
Baertschi
Monahan
Horak
Bouma
Knight
Cundari
Gaudreau
Rienhardt
Wootherpoon
Ramage
Billins
Breen
Arnold
Agostino
The 4-year college UFA really impacts Gaudreau, Arnold, Agosinto and even Jankowski ever being a Flame. These guys are all 1-2 years away to being able to choose their own team.... the one that fits their style... and gives them the bets chance to collect an NHL salary (like winning a lottery for the rest of us folks)
Corban Knight , I would guess, was a totally dedicated Panther right up to the point where he was NHL ready.

It's been amazing. Since I got drafted by the Panthers, it's been unbelievable how they've treated me. They're just a very classy organization and that starts with Mr. Tallon all the way through. I've actually gotten the chance to meet Mr. Tallon and Mr. Luce at camp in the summer and they were just great guys. I just really appreciated how they run their organization there; it's very straightforward and they do things the right way. I definitely feel very fortunate to be with this organization.
