If we didnt have Rosen and Timmins playing well I think we might have seen Bo suit up for sure.
If we picked a forward they'd probably have made the team with just an OK camp performance. We're just way deeper on defense atm.
Seems to be doing OK. Really wish he was eligible to play in Loveland.
I would've loved to loan him to SC Bern, but Byram doesn't seem like the type of bloke who would want to do that.
So when he comes to camp next year and still isn't used to NHL play, does he go back to juniors again?

Exactly. His demotion is about our depth for once rather than him not being capable.Imagine to be able to ease Girard into the line up, let Makar make his debut during the playoffs, have Timmins waiting to go and on top of that can afford to send Byram back.
And still have guys like EJ, Cole and Zadorov around.
It was about both, to be honest. He didn’t look ready but some of the other guys made it an easy call.Exactly. His demotion is about our depth for once rather than him not being capable.

The CHL and NHL have an agreement wherein drafted prospects from the CHL have to play in either the NHL or the CHL, no AHL time. It has to do with the CHL's desire to keep their star players in their own system to sell tickets rather than lose them to a different development league. And since CHL players aren't eligible for the NCAA (they're considered "professional" ), that basically means they're stuck there unless they're full time in the NHL.Forgive the ignorance, but what makes him ineligible? His age?
I’m not disagreeing but I think lot of teams would have played him this season had they drafted them.It was about both, to be honest. He didn’t look ready but some of the other guys made it an easy call.
I think a lot of teams would have put him in regardless but we have a pretty good left side for once imo.Certainly disagree on that. He was not ready for the NHL.

Nah, IMHO the only position which worries me about the ice change is goaltending and even then they eventually get accustomed to it.Playing on big ice wouldn’t worry you there?
