Hunter hasnt gotten the same opportunities, there isnt the same guarentee that he wont be a tweener still next year. I would still consider him a prospect for the rankings.
yeah I feel as if he graduates those guys (all 4, Kuz is obvious and ZP and MG are maybes) then he will for other teams too, and if he doesn't paradoxically that should be considered a win for the Flames as moving blue chippers to the NHL is the whole point, so if our guys are leapfrogging other teams (and yes we are a bad NHL team but so are many of the other prospect rich teams)
