I would just want clarification on the title of the thread. If someone visited the site for the first time in months they might think Baertschi was tearing it up in the NHL, only to find they were unintentionally trolled.
I also find it a bit puzzling that some other Heat players put up solid performances in that game (mainly Knight's hat trick, plus Ortio & Miller) but the only one mentioned on this board is Baertschi. When the Heat are doing really well it's pretty rare that anything is mentioned on this board, but Sven gets an empty netter, a goal banked in off a defenceman and a couple secondary assists and it's news on the main board. Just sayin.

So what you're saying is that you've found no one agrees with your original complaint so you're feebly reaching for weak arguments to back it up? Cool. I don't remember seeing any complaints about the number of threads regarding Johnny Gaudreau who isn't even an pro player. Signing speculation, Frozen four GT, interview with JG's mom etc.
If anything the quote that I've bolded is the very reason this should be in the FOI forum. If anyone hasn't visited the forum in months or followed the team the last thing they probably heard about Baertschi is that he was demoted after being expected to make the team amid a flurry of speculation about his attitude and was struggling to produce in Abbotsford.
I think it's great to see him have a game like this and I'm glad to hear about it. From what I've heard his two way play has improved as well so hopefully he can bring that back to the Flames next year.
