0:37 last game. The Flames had three powerplays.
2:06 in St. Louis. The Flames had six powerplays.
He was #5 among forwards in game three, and #9 in Nashville in powerplay time. So clearly his 5-on-4 ice time was reduced last night from the previous three games, but I wouldn't say that there is anything to suggest a pattern of reduction. Some of this might also just be in-game situations, or things that the coaches are seeing in the moment.
