Honestly, good for him. He put in his time with the Flames. He showed he was an NHL defenceman. Good to see him get a shot with the Canadiens.
It is kind of cool looking back at the 2017 prospect ranking. Unless something significant derails these guys careers, they had 5 future NHL dman in the system that summer. I think that was also the summer Brandon Hickey was traded, so potentially 6 if he puts together an NHL career. There haven’t been many times when the Flames had that much defensive prospect talent in the system.
