Isnt that the truth. The guy is in his 3rd full time AHL season, lacks motivation and statically keeps getting worse every year. If Flames were to call up a forward right now, he'd buried on that list. Yet its not ok to call him a bust?
Some started calling Yakupov a bust when he was still in Edmonton. Virtanen is a bust for some guys here but Poirier is not
.
Time to cut loses and move on. I'm glad Treliving is not attached to some of these crappy prospects from the past.
