Stars on Tuesday
CoyoteJets on Wednesday
Blackhawks on Friday

missing arguably our best Dman this season in Edler and calling up our top prospect who has performed average after coming back from several injuries this season.

I could see a .500 week with the way they have been playing the last couple weeks.

Speaking selfishly, I would like to see regulation wins against Ponicks and Chi-town (Stars look to be already home and cooled for a playoff spot)

With the depth at Center how do you think Hodgson will handle 4th line minutes? Is he still 1 year away?

It's tough to say, as we have never seen him healthy as a pro. his last act as a healthy player was winning the CHL player of the year over Tavares.... after that, it's been back, face, toe, back, foot, etc.
4th line should be a good spot for him him this call-up to get a feel for the pace of the game. We do have some pretty skilled players that we can spot on the 4th, depending on how things are going. Tambellini, Raymond, Hansen and Samuelsson have all seen 4th line duty at times this yea (I'd rather he didn;t learn too much from Samuelsson though).

By October, imho, he should have a spot on the 3rd line, even if it's not at center (or Malhotra just takes the draws). And probably some 2nd unit powerplay time, too.

good start... 7 points clear of the west. (wow?)

and now the Nucks and Yotes are racing to see who can get into Phoenix sooner.

I think I can safely speak for Flames fans by saying "Keep up the good work Friday night!!"
