One of the highlights for me was Granlund cheating on the faceoff, getting tossed, and Colborne winning it. There was also the Granlund screen on the wideman goal that I thought added an element the flames have been missing for the last month. I want to see Granlund-Shore-Colborne (and Raymond-Stajan-Jooris)
Also, while Colborne got the goal, I thought the Stajan assist was one of the best plays in the game. How many people can boast their 4th line center makes that pass on a given night?

Raymond looked better than he has so maybe the pressbox did both he and Granlund some good

+1 That might be the best Raymond has looked since coming back from injury. I'm not surprised he was a +1

When Jooris comes back I hope they sit Byron for a game or two just to see if it can spark him like it did the others.

Paul Byron just needs to see the puck go in, not to be sat. Him and Russell have just had it rough this season. For Russell, it's acceptable since he's not a forward. Just maybe we need to try Byron on D beside Engelland. He'd have to learn the defensive coverages but I can see it working out.
Speaking of Dmen, I didn't mind the Smid/Engelland pairing tonight. They're going to have teams against which they struggle for sure, but the Sharks must not be one of them.
