I think he has a ton of upside but im wondering why he's been gift wrapped a spot on the team?

Because the guy tied with or ahead of him on the depth chart is suspended to start the tournament?
He hasn't been gift wrapped a spot, he earned one of two positions the the process team Canada uses for all World Juniors. Previous play, summer camp, play in the season, etc etc.
Flames draft pick.. er.. Flames goalie draft pick = Suck!
