What that contract is is open for debate. I'd like to see him play so well the team is forced to give him a one way with a pretty decent salary. That's the challenge though. He's got to step up and earn that. The only way he does that is if he goes down and starts scoring.

Jooris is not a good comparable. Jooris may be older, but he is also doesn't have to be exposed to the waiver wire. He has stepped up and earned a spot in the window expected. Baertschi is coming to the end of his waiver exempt status and was expected to have earned a spot by now. Teams want players that they don't have to be concerned about losing on waivers. Next season Baertschi finds himself in the Joe Colborne realm. Very different circumstances.
