Schwindt, Ruzicka, Pelletier - that's 3 shots at the 3rd line beside 2 of Calgary's most defensively responsible players to enter the league with, while accumulating cap space. I would rather have that then sign Rodrigues. Sproung at near minimum salary (which is what he got last year in Seattle) is fine with me too, but 'attitude problems' seemed to the word around him since the draft, and he hasn't managed to stick anywhere.

Schwindt also got into 3 games on a pretty stacked Florida team, so he is probably really close to getting his shot in the NHL. Going by what people say about him, he sounds like he is suitable to break into the NHL in the bottom 6, which helps as well. His ceiling might not be as high as some prospects, but he isn't a top 6 or bust prospect either.
