How are Granlund and Ferland (?!) ahead of Sven on the depht chart? Along with Johnny, he's still our top prospect. Yeah, he needs to work on some things in the AHL, but that doesn't make him a lesser prospect than when we drafted him.
The Burke comments...think about it like this. When your parents ground you (or spank you for some), or yell at you, do they do it because they don't like you anymore or do they do it so you learn a lesson and help you become a better person? Same princple applies here I think.
Besides, if Burke had ANY intention of trading him, wouldn't he hype him up instead?
If Burke wants to trade Wideman for example, is he going to say he's a good pp option, or that he sucks in his own end?
Funny, he's getting more love on HF than here.
