Not surprised to see Quine go to Stockton, but I think he's shown enough that he should be the first forward called up. It was interesting to see him being interviewed by Ryan Leslie during the first intermission on Saturday night; I could tell they didn't really get into specifics about staying in Calgary and where he might play, and just talked generally about "starting the season".

I personally think Czarnik is done developing. I also think Dube has done all the developing he can in the AHL and would be served better in the NHL.
