So the Flames need 7 extra points in the last 9 games to overtake us. They probably need to run the table now and even that might not be enough.
The Flames may need to go 7-2 to beat us.

Actually rich bastard, $8M a year for broken down player who just dresses!
Literally rich, spiritually poor - to be precise.

Its likely not enjoyable to experience the slide down the talent rung as hard as he has. Equipped even with a small modicum of a conscience, his salary *underscores* his spiritual poverty. Its a spotlight directed straight at him, becoming his personal albatross.

Don't mistake this observation for overt pity, but you've got to know he's not having any fun out there. My main concern is that it psychologically slows down any rebound in his play, which fecks up his linemates, and ultimately the play of my team. :)

IMHO he is transitioned to a third or fourth liner. This is wasteland country for a guy who has habitually ruled the roost.

When you are wide open in the slot and the thought of shooting doesn't even cross your mind, you pass it away to a guy that's covered and in a worse shooting area you need to go to the 3rd or 4th line.
It's so funny because if that goes in on that pass people are singing his praises.

Wheeler used to routinely make passes like that, I know that hasn't been the case recently.

I'm not saying he shouldn't be on the 3rd line, and when Perfetti comes back that should absolutely happen

Goals cover lots of errors but when a team is struggling make the simple play and shoot.
