Really wonderful to see him doing well. There aren't many prospects in the Flames' system that has his offensive gifts - can probably count them on one hand. Hopefully some team out there is going to want to make a move now so the Flames can bring up a guy or two and make some room to get Granlund those minutes.
What surprises me the most thus far isn't that Granlund is doing this well offensively (thought he COULD do it, but definitely wasn't sure it was going to happen), it is the fact that he is still playing center. I thought for sure the Flames would have moved him to the wing. Really great to watch this kid develop.
