Granlund really looked good this year - probably substantially better than anyone expected. But I think he gets another year in the A (with callup time) to over-ripen.
Reinhart looks ready to take a bottom six role. He probably starts in the A, IMO but I think he works his way into the bottom 6 this year.
As for Granlund passing Baertschi, there is no question that Granlund had a better year. But I fully expect Baertschi to answer back this fall. I think they both spend time with the big club and in the A.
IMO, only one or two of the young guys 'make the team'. I think they will all go to the A together to continue to develop and grow together.
Next year is going to be even better than this year was on the farm.
