Pretty much all of Bean, Miromanov, Bahl, and Pachal look better than expected.
Barrie has done F all for the offence. the Flames upgraded with a solid #3, they'd actually have a decent d-core. They'd ideally want a talented offensive guy with basic second pairing defensive abilities. Parekh has those abilities but is obviously a ways from being ready.

Bahl has been phenomenal. Most people thought the 1st from NJ was the bread & butter piece coming back in that deal but Bahl looks like a legit, top 4 stay-at-home defenseman. Small sample size but still. 24 years old, 6’6,” 240 lbs that can skate well. Great job Conny and pro-scout who covers the east.
Barrie should only be injury replacement at this point. He’s not better than any of the other D on the roster.
