Interestingly the flames now have some roster decisions that might impact him though. he can't be a 3rd line player when it has to be a checking line because we dont have enough skill, but if people get bumped from the lineup and we can have a skilled 3rd line, he might find a home

I think Baertschi has every opportunity to play up in the top 6 right now if he shows he deserves it. When Jooris was called up, he started on the bottom lines and then last night had top line ice time.
I do think Baertschi's biggest problem is between the ears though. He strikes me as the kind of player that expects things to come easy. He has enough skill that if you put him with a superstar, he would probably put up quite a few points, but as a go-to guy, it isn't going to happen. Perhaps he and Setoguchi have a lot in common.
