I’m pretty happy to have had my reservations and doubts about Zary proven completely unfounded. He didn’t look good to me in the AHL, didn’t look like anything special. But he’s looked like 10x the player in the NHL.

If nothing else, Zary and Pospisil (like Pelletier and Coronato before them) are proving that we have talent in our pipeline that can fill out and contribute to an NHL roster. They might not be at the level of Bedard (even if one of them is producing better) but trusting the guys in our system is paying off and hopefully the Flames continue that in building the next interaction of this roster over the next couple of years.
