I really like him as a player but I think he still has things to learn in the AHL, whereas I don't think that's the case for GranMa and Gaudreau. It pains me to send him down, but in my opinion he is the least NHL-ready of the prospects we have called up right now.
At the same time, though, as many in this thread have pointed out, there is a high chance we'll never be icing a totally healthy roster this year, so he could probably stay up by default.
I disagree about Jooris. He plays a complete game and translated very well into the NHL.
I'd love to see a line of:
Byron - Backs - Jooris
When Backlund's healthy. I think that'd be a very defensively sound like, you could play against other teams big lines, but that could also put up some points offensively.
I think Sven & Ferland are the two guys that are almost certainly odd-men out. I honestly think that Calgary needs to swing a forward into trying to pry a young dman out of somewhere; because we have a few too many forwards when everyone's healthy... and the majority of them have shown they belong in the NHL.
