I disagree with this. Baertschi was considered one of, if not the top prospect in the CHL. The fact that he was able to come in and produce offensively in the NHL suggested he was the real deal and a surefire Flame the following season. He also started the lockout year in the AHL looking pretty dominant at times. There was quite a bit of hype.
