Man that's a big jump for anyone to make ...major junior to the show. His footspeed to me seems lacking and that's also what Conroy said about Hunter Brz the other dynamo we will be waiting to see .

If we can be patient enough we'll see a kid improve his skating and defensive side put on some more weight and be less injury prone. Even if he made the AHL level he'd have to fight for his life....the ECHL and AHL are full of guys who are trying to make the show but never will and run around trying to take runs at the sure next thing and if you don't think so you aren't paying attention.

At the same time I don't want the Flames roster plugged up with Knuckdraggers just to protect rookies . I'm so done with that mentality on this team where we have to have a nuclear deterrent.

That doesn't help score goals , the game is changing and fighting is down anyway.

I want to win another cup and see it in my lifetime and there is a way better chance now
With all the changes , this awesome draft and our current depth (potential)

Look at Coronato as an example. He wasn't ready and so they put him in thr only place they could to cook for a little longer and he's still not a sure thing in my eyes.

Zaynes gonna be a heck of a playa for sure as is Hunter but let's make sure we let the strength coaches, skating coaches etc develop a game plan so they can step in when ready and make a noticeable impact instead of some Evan Doochbomb premature ejaculator who needs mommy when someone has him in a headlock . God now that is embarrassing and yet this is what the oilers continue to crank out plus their retreads, reclamation projects of everything hockey.
