Flames Lines... maybe... they went in a blender late last game

Kuzmenko-Kadri-Coronato
Zary-Backlund-Coleman
Huberdeau-Pospisil-Mantha
Lomberg-Kirkland-Klapka

Bahl-Andersson
Weegar-Miromanov
Bean-Pachal

Wolf or Vladar

Carolina lines:

Some Aho and a bunch of jerks

In no way am I making light of the recent situations in the SE, much love to those affected by the hurricanes and to those that may be affected by the next, I think I can speak for all of us when I say stay safe. :heart:

First time this season the Flames will actually be tested by a good team.

Will be a good 'can we hang' game.
Hockey is so random that it's hard to use single games as a measuring stick, but it'd be a good 'can we hang with these guys' type game.

Kirkland is one of those coach falling in love with depth player and giving him a larger role even though it won’t work play that we see from time to time. I’m so used to it that I don’t bother complaining anymore lol.

I would like to see Zary get a real shot at some point just to see what we’ve got. Because right now we have a massive glut of wingers with nothing down the middle.

I agree. I really struggle to understand this organizations unwillingness to give Zary a good look at C. He's the best zone entry player on the team.

I keep telling myself it's so he can learn from Mikael Backlund and being on a line with him.

Now I love me some Justin Kirkland, but I will be disappointed if Zary doesn't take at least a shift or two between Huberdeau & Mantha.

Zary's already decent defensively. If anyone on the roster needed the Backlund sheltering, it's Coronato (also Honzek and Pelletier).

This organization is just completely allergic to developing centers properly. Way too much fear and impatience.

Hoping for another W against a good team or at least they've been a good team in previous years

Yeah, more of the same though it looks like we're sort of alternating goalies which is whatever I guess. Maybe the clear #1 will emerge.

I'll guess a 4-2 win for us. Weegs and Ras get points.

Should be a bit of a measuring stick game for the Flames.
Going to have to be a lot better at 5v5 than they have the last two games or we could be in for an ugly one.

but hey why not us

Go team. Hope they keep it going, but feels like a Carolina masterclass tonight. I enjoy being wrong w these types of expectations of course.

Rooney hat trick incoming. Haha. I'm glad to see he feels better, but dislike him taking a spot on this roster. He, too, can prove me wrong.
