Only thing I have to add to Alberta_Beef's comments is that he's also been instrumental in some of Baertschi's goals of late as well as finishing some Baertschi passes. The guy seems to know how to read a play and might be one of those players that we have in the system that helps in the development of some of our Top 6 guys.

I do agree I see more AHL in him then NHL in him, but not in any negative way. I think his success and satisfaction from playing will be in the AHL rather then sitting on the bench or box in the NHL because he's maybe a 3rd or 4th liner.

Also, I would think Roy in net tonight. I don't think Joey will start.

We may also be down another defenseman as the Flames are looking at calling someone up.
