Not sure how many more times I can say it, but Ortio saving our behinds again. He's stopping everything. He's bailing us out of some pretty stupid defensive lapses here.
I don't understand why people are so quick to write off Hanowski. Good size, alright hands, and decent hockey sense. If he can continue to improve his skating and potentially adds little edge to his game he could be an alright 3rd/4th line guy.

Keep in mind, the AHL does not keep the same stats as the NHL. We don't have advanced stats like TOI, FO%, etc. We have goals, assists, points, shots and +/-.

I don't think people are writing him off they just don't think he is NHL ready. I really think Hanowski should spend another season in the AHL. He was much improved on the last call up by the Flames and I think he will get better. His skating needs improvement for sure and he needs to react faster on the play something that he can improve on by playing more professional games in AHL. I hope Flames re-sign him for at least two more seasons.
Thanks Drury for the PBP on Heat game. I hope TSN or Sportsnet start showing the Heat games especially during the playoff.
