He's played around 48 minutes in Flames silks, playing pretty much 4th line role which Hartley uses mostly defensively, sink or swim. Most guys on our roster have tended to sink in that role other than Stajan, Byron, Bouma (at wing), Ferland and Jooris. That includes Johnny, Granlund, Shore, Colborne, Sven (RIP), Bouma(at center), and Bollig. The amount of sample size to make any judgement on him is virtually nil, other than the Winnipeg "game" where he must have done something to get on Hartley's bad side.
Also, though he only actually spent 3 minutes with Backs and less than a minute with Bouma, but I liked this sequence... it got me kind of excited to see these three together again in the future:
