It would be good to see what he have with these older prospects. Pelletier could turn out to be a decent NHLer but I wouldn't want to rush his development unnecessarily. We arent so desperate for talented depth like the clowns up north that we throw our prospects to the wolves asap

You would think the handling of Bennet, among others, would have demonstrated the importance of AHL seasoning to Flames fans. It’s an enormous step up from jr to the NHL, and almost all prospects benefit from time in the AHL playing against men.
