If RNH has avoided a crushing hit 1/4 into the season I see no reason why Sven couldnt do the same.
Sven: 5'10" / 184 lbs
RNH: 6'0" / 173 lbs

I was told that Sven was now 5'11, 189 lbs a month ago, obviously can't confirm though.

I honestly see 600 goals and 1300 points from Bartschi.

I see Jeff Skinner in Baertschi. Same size and pure offensive talent. Very crafty with the puck, but not in a gimmicky way. Skinner is supposedly 200 lbs but I doubt that.

I think Skinner is a better skater, but size and skillset wise it is a close comparable. I see Baertschi as a guy who could make the jump next season, but not necessarily start out with a 30 goal rookie campaign. I do think though, if he plays in the NHL next season, put him with a bigger guy who will jump in on the forecheck and create space for Baertschi, and he could pot quite a few goals

I honestly think Bartschi would be dynamite playing with a guy liek Stempniak.

Is Sven Bartschi really that good or is he playing on a really good and talented Winter Hawks team?

Being sans Nino and sans Johansen has given Rattie and Bartschi more time...something they've handled very well.

But, in three weeks, he'll be the most popular player in the Saddledome.

Given the amount of pure, natural skill on our current roster, this guy could be the second coming of Denis Rodman and I'd still welcome him to the team with open arms.
