If he was a developed player and had more NHL experience, maybe I could have accepted it. But he is another project and pretty much a prospect like the rest of them and I think it was a needless trade to make.

There is some sort of disconnect.
The Heat has 5 NHL calibre centres and is 4-4-1 and none of them is at a ppg pace in the AHL.
Knight Reinhart, Horak, Blair Jones and Ben Street are all touted to be Colborne level centres that are NHL ready but the Heat is not dominating the AHL.
What is the problem? Do they have bad attitudes? Poor coaching or just not as good as the Flames fans imagine.
