Not comparable at all?
Of Baertschi's 24 NHL pts I would venture to guess he was more significantly involved rather than Tofoli?
Tofoli is on a deep talented winning team that is spending to the cap. Baertschi is not good enough for one of the worst teams in the league?
And you wonder why Baertschi is thinking that the Flames are not treating him fairly.

Comparable? Sure. There are similarities, but that shouldn't guarantee that Sven makes the big club.
Toffoli is/was the Kings most touted prospects. He was a goal scorer which was a real need for the kings. I get they are stacked, but they did need more goal scoring (2 years ago, in particular). Instead of sticking with the kings, he was sent down to Manchester and was their best player. He now looks like a real NHLer and a potential star. I would suggest that Sven has, and should receive the same treatment. Dominate the AHL and then make a meaningful contribution to the Flames.
