Sounds like what a lot of short-sighted impatient Flames fans said about Backlund at the same point in his career. I get why Treliving did the trade but I think it's becoming quite clear who is likely to have the better NHL career between Granlund and Shinkaruk. Too bad we couldn't figure out a way to fit him in.
