I get that the Flames often like to have good non-prospect type players around to fill out the AHL team and make them respectable, but you are placing too much emphasis on his scoring and not enough on him being projectable as a contributing NHL player.
I'm suggesting he needs to play a top 6 role due to his skillset, but it seems clear the Flames aren't seeing him as that calibre of player.
