I think this is more a case of the timing being perfect. We are without a true superstar player, and the world is his oyster right now. It looks like the Flames brass are just saying F it, and letting him have all the ice he needs to develop, and he has taken the ball and is running with it. Two or three years ago, we probably would have already sent him back to junior, or buried him in AHL purgatory. The biggest thing that is blowing me away about him is his maturity, and consistency.
I truly believe we are witnessing the birth of our new franchise player, and a future NHL top 10 scorer. It feels good man.
