in my 2 years of being vested in Flames prospects, my faves were: Cam Cunning, Warren Peters, David Van Der Gulik, Carsen Germyn, and Brett Palin.
I hoped Cunning would get a call up. He was my favorite baby Flame. He had tons of jam and in his Abbottsford years even put up some points. Peters was the captain and I didn't see the NHL upside much though he managed to just about hit 100 NHL games with other teams. VDG didn't stand out much when here, but similar to Peters, managed to carve out a decent amount of NHL time. Germyn and Palin had no real NHL upside but played hard down here and earned lots of love from the fans.
The biggest surprise from the QC era had to be Adam Cracknell. I didn't include him on my list as at the time I didn't care for him. He was in the ECHL QC's first year and the second year he was meh and hogged the puck a lot. He's managed to break 200 games with 21/22/43.
