He's a good prospect, who also isn't the magical answer to the team's issues. Folks were freaking out about kylington last year too but sutter knew what he was doing there, and I don't see any reason to freak out about other prospects.

I'm not 100% sold Phillips will be anything, but the major difference between Phillips and Kylington is that Phillips is 100% gone if we don't figure out what he is this season. So the fan frustration is "we're having trouble scoring, we have a prospect that's leading the AHL in scoring, how in the **** is that not worth sitting one of our four plugs for a week or two to see how Philips plays on the Flames?".
We've put all this work into him, if you give him a cup of coffee in February due to a short injury then you may as well call up someone else as Phillips will be gone from the organization if that's all he gets.
