Huska said yesterday that his line-up won't be official until later today. But I think it is likely that they will go with the one published.

Taking Mironmanov out isn't so much a reflection of poor play (he's been ok), but rather a way to get Barrie some games.

One game it may be Bean. Another it may be Miromanov. Either way it gives the team another weapon on the power play.

GFG!

Wolf, the guy with the .944 sv% and 2.02 GAA or Vladar with a .880 sv% and 2.96 GAA, today?
If we're serious about the tank, Vladar is the way to go.

Oh god. It's the 5th f***ing game dude.

Also looking at SV% for 2 games each means next to nothing.

We should have a tank discussion thread, so we can keep that bullshit discussion in a single place.

Vladar is getting the start.

So far all the road starts have gone to Vladar and the home starts have gone to Wolf. lol, if that is how it's broken down all year that would suck for Vladar to never play in front of the home team. It won't and I am 99% sure it's just coincidence to start the season, but funny none the less.

Flames win easily 6-2. Kraken's roster blows and will for many a years, Francis is a terrible GM.

 

[Mobiandi]

Vladar hate is misguided. Wolf is better but Vladar’s been playing thru hip injuries for most of his time here. His big weakness is Wolf’s biggest strength - puck tracking. Good fundamentals otherwise

Oh my god, I read the thread title and knew I heard that line before but I couldn't place where it was from until after I clicked the thread. I don't know how many times I watched that movie on VHS as a kid hahaha

I still picture Johnny 5 and Stephanie spinning around whenever I hear "More Than a Woman" haha

Time to win, go Flames go. I am pretty sure Vladar beat Seattle twice last year, so I would assume he gets the start.

So did I. This is one movie series that could be incredible if rebooted as a TV show, or animated film.

One of my fave franchises from my youngster days. Still brings a smile to my face.


And ofc Luna's wonderful thread starter:

I don't need to have watched the 2 games that Vladar played this year to know that he's no more than a 2nd rate backup goalie.
He's bad enough that if the Flames put him on waivers tomorrow he'd clear.

you do know he's had hip issues his entire time in Calgary, right? But why let facts interfere with preconceived biases.

I like winning as much as the next guy but if the Flames finish outside the bottom 10 I'll be royally pissed off because that means MTL gets our #1 pick and we end up with Florida's and New Jersey's which won't be good in a draft where there will be an abundance of good centers chosen early in the first round. What a waste of a year.
Vladar is the guy you want in net in order to prevent that from happening. Hip issues... phftt. I predict he won't be any better this year than any other year.

When the Flames make the playoffs their pick will be in the 20's anyway.

I never believed we had a bottom 10 roster and without the distractions the team is playing hard every game. Only team in the division I legitimately think is better than the Flames is a healthy Vegas.

I've been watching Short Circuit 2 clips for the last little bit and I'm surprised at how little of this movie I remember! I just remember Johnny 5 arriving in New York and him getting beat up and him going punk mode for revenge, but that's about it haha
