His college line mates/buddies are here which means he'll at least be with one or both of them even if he doesn't make the team. And if he doesn't make the big club... He'll be closer to home for his first year on the farm team.

Would be great if he signs with the flames but I'm not going to hold my breath... Calgary is a long way away from home for him. His brother is with Florida who also seem like a team ready to improve and he will have a good chance to make that team too.
Why do you think its a long shot?
