I think Granlund can be a regular player in the NHL but in a 3rd line role. That wasn't going to work for the Flames because they have an abundance of bottom 6 talent on the roster and in the AHL. I have no issue with them trading him for a guy that has better top 6 potential even if he has a higher bust factor.
