Good game by the Heat tonight.
Ortio looks rock solid. I've been impressed with him all season going back to the Flames' camp in September. He looks so confident and his athleticism is top notch.
Knight looked like a force out there and it's easy to see he's going to be a game player for the Flames moving forward.
Max Reinhart has all kinds of jam and looks like he'll make a serviceable bottom six forward for the Flames in the future.
Granlund is a pure goal scorer and it was good to see him back on the score sheet.
Glad to see Baertschi finally pot one and break the goose egg. He looked great in this game and had two big shifts in the second where he really stood out. Hopefully he'll start to get some swagger back and keep building that chemistry with Granlund.
All in all the Heat look really fast and exciting and it's great to see them leading the AHL. Speaks to the talent and hard work we have in all our youngsters down there and it looks like a lot of them have a bright future ahead of them.
