Grant is firmly in the NHL now. He looked pretty good against us in the Buffalo game. Arnold was a bit of a question mark and I put most of the blame on Huska for not helping to develop his offensive game. Van Brabant was easily replaced.
This years Heat are probably going to be the most successful farm team the Flames have had in a long time, if ever.
Lomberg, Mangiapane, Shinkaruk, Jankowski, Andersson. That's a great influx of young talent to replace the career AHL tweeners.
