Not a criticism on Bader, because I really like his work, but on Stromgren, he had some interesting things to say that he sees him as a guy who periodically makes a sick play, but that the player isn't consistent and disappears for a long time. He said the big periodic goals have raised peoples' expectations about him.
He could be right, or he might just still be annoyed that Calgary passed over Logan Stankoven, but I personally think Stromgren's past streakiness is more because he was bounced around and getting used to various league and coaching expectations.
I'm with you that he's a dark horse player this year that could take a big step and see some regular NHL duty. We'll see.
