Good to hear. Hopefully he gets plenty of ice time to help his development as much as possible.

Lots of things have been written in other threads, who knows if that's a troll or not.

He needs to just on this as an opportunity to turn things around and show he can play against quality opposition. But he didn't show up in the AHL playoffs, does he show up in a world championship tournament?..

I understand you are trying to be funny.

I hate that the first several posts about one of our best prospects have this same un-original punch-line.

How did Sven become a way to grab quick laughs?

Why don't we start supporting him, instead of taking lame potshots?

I wonder what he did to be accepted on the team for the tournament this time that improved his standing from February where he got rejected for the Olympics?

I think that was a pot shot, at the people who were taking pot shots at Flames management, because hey believed they were taking pot shots at Sven............

Niño still in playoffs for the wild likely has a lot to do with it.
