I think the FLames' strategy with potentially re-signing him is that he is a fitness machine and works incredibly hard in the offseason to keep himself in top shape. As a small person, he has to in order to be strong on the puck and get through the grind of a regular NHL season.
He'd be the kind of guy a small, skilled forward coming out of .... say.... US College .... may want to have his locker next to throughout his rookie season.
