I am a Flames season ticket holder...and I hope that doesn't bias me too much...I think Turek Sucks, Conroy's overatted, Saprykin has been showing some signs but may never get it together as they hoped he would...but Kobasew I have little doubts about.
His offensive instincts remind me of Brett Hull and I am not the first to make that comparison. He isn't that big but he's getting more steady, more stocky and he plays big...and his offensive instincts are already there his body is just a little behind
Bera in mind he plays about 7 -9 mins most nights and plays on a line with Oliwa and whatever other bum isn't scratched that night....
Kobasew is a great young player that will be a Top 6 forward in the NHL.....but he won't be there for 2 to 3 more years...be patient...but don't be concerned
