I think the issue with a message board is a single over zealous fan can sometimes get used to paint the whole board.

Not to mention there's an implicit bias. For every fan saying Pelech was the worst pick of all time, or crowning him the next Norris winner, there's 100 people who don't feel the need to post "Pelech is an adequate prospect that may or may not live up to hype."
Buuuuut:

With Pelech doing well in the AHL, the Flames look like they may have a couple of 2-4 D guys coming up.
