Been watching this closely as well. Big games for the flames, if his team loses out early they will have leverage over any other team being able to offer NHL games and burn a year of his entry level. Gotta think that would make it almost impossible that he signs anywhere else.
I think they should win game #1 easily but game #2 probably against BC is going to be a toss-up.
Not that I'm rooting against the kid, but would be cool to see him play in the final stretch and also to make sure he doesn't walk.
