I'm not sold on picking up Stewart, but seriously? We shouldn't pick him up because we have Wolf in the organization? We see an very nice up tick and lift in expectations from our prospects this year and all of a sudden people start to lose some serious perspective on what is realistic to expect from the boys currently playing on the farm. Starting to get the impression many feel every single body we have on the Heat is a magical untapped NHL superstar just waiting for the Flames to wake up and unleash them on the NHL. It's getting ridiculous the expectations many are starting to get for our AHL boys, and it's ridiculous how easily replaceable people think some of established NHL players are.
