This is a great trade for us, it is amazing how many people are just saying ( Meh just a so so move ) Drew shore is a great prospect to have. As a few others have said I believe he is going to be tried out on the wing as well as center. I get that knight was good in the dot and that has been a really poor part of the Flames game for what seems like a century. Our Centers are actually getting quite good at faceoff's, the only reason our stats are still near the bottom is the nasty 35% that Granlund is performing at.
Shore is now our leading scorer on the farm team and was good enough to play for the US U17-U18-U20 and mens WC teams....He is a huge upgrade over Knight.
