He's too small and easy to take off the puck. Would you put JG on in the last minute of a game where you're up a goal? Again, probably not. Would you put him on if you're down a goal? Probably yes.

Yes, I'm disappointed that JG isn't getting more ice-time or being set up 'to win', but he's been given a fair shake. Sure, his linemates have been so-so, but the entire Flames roster is so-so.
Not so sure about that... not only is he stuck playing with line mates that he has zero chemistry with, Hartley has him playing right wing. When was the last time JG played right wing on a regular basis?
