So think that's where you pencil him in the Flames lineup.

Yeah he may make the club next year, but the other side of that is why burn an entire season of his ELC when the club is going to be anything but competitive?
Part of the business side of the game is to try and extract value out of every SPC signed.
Sending him back to junior delays not only the start of his initial 3 year deal, but also re-signing him on his second deal when you have to believe the club, at that point, will see themselves as contenders and where it is he will make a real impact to the team.
