Sadly they (Pats) suck, have some injuries and are relying on him to score them into the playoffs.
On a side note, he is selling out every WHL arena in Alberta on this road trip. Here in Lethbridge, people are paying over $90 on stub hub for seats to tonights game. Red Deer, and Med Hat are all sell outs for his games.

There would be a different story being told if the Flames were in the bottom five of the standings right now looking at a chance to draft him. They aren't and won't be, and looking like some Western conference tema will be, so the downplaying has already begun.
