I understand what you're saying but I'm old enough and I've seen this movie before.

This is turning identical to the Martin St. Louis situation.

Maybe St. Louis might have proven himself more at the AHL level but that guy had the same mental state of mind as well. He thought demotion was the end of the world and he would get so down on himself.

To this day...that was the case. He was left off Team Canada Olympic roster and he got so down and out...that he demanded a trade even after he won a gold medal.

Some human beings are just like this....you have to be accommodating. I think if the Flames got rid of Baertschi now...he would go and become a superstar elsewhere.
