lol - Maybe Mike Gillis can call in to TSN1040 Vancouver and call the Moj fat.

"Is this Bob?" lol

EVERYTHING IS ON THE INTERWEEEBS!!!

I am interested in seeing if Willie D will match up the Sedin line with Gaudreau, Monahan, and Hudler - As much as you have to be concerend about the Sedins, Vrbata is the most dangerous Canucks forward.

I have a feeling he will put Horvat/Hansen against them ... speed matches up and they are defensively responsible ... Horvat got the big defensive matchups down the stretch ... no idea who the 3rd wheel will be ... possibly Dorsett will spell out Kenins ... if its vey, that matchup wont last

if Richardson is back that might also be an option on that line ... although he would probably take Veys centre spot before BRich or Horvat gets moved to wing

Am I dumb to find this surprising?

i said it before, Sven's not a top 6 solution for this season but more for long term

apparently Bae (its what the "cool" kids are calling him unfortunately ) was told before the Coiler game he was being sent down ... good effort in his final game on his way out the door ... certainly gave WillieD some pause for thought seeing how he gave the Horvat line a more offensive look (he mentioned it post game)

as puckhead said ... probably means 1 (or 2) of Richardson, Kassian, Matthias are back in the lineup game 1

Looking good CBul...

No Monahan nor Russell at Flames practice this morning, Sam Bennett taking the place of Mason Raymond (hmmm, interesting).

Mark Giordano skated this am . Says if the #Flames can somehow advance. And if surgeons are positive a return to lineup may be possible

Derek Wills ‏@Fan960Wills 26m26 minutes ago
#Flames Mark Giordano skated on his own today and although he's not close, he didn't rule out a return to the line-up this season.

I'm no doctor (not even a Dr. Recchi), but my best guess would be conference finals at the earliest...

#Flames Brad Treliving said Sam Bennett is available for Bob Hartley to use...burning a year of his ELC won't keep him out of the line-up.

Mason Raymond on popcorn row?

I'm just tired of watching offensive plays die at the end of Raymond's stick - A speedier version of Blake Comeau is still not good.

lol - Kirk McLean is in the cesspool and of course they're discussing the Otto "kicked-in" goal in '89
