The Flames defence is looking more like the formidable force we hoped they would be at the beginning of the year, Ramo is building some confidence, and the Flames can ice four legitamate forward lines.

And within a week both Bouma and Russell should be back. My pessimism may have been misplaced as this team begins to kick into a new gear!

Raymond out. Bouma in.
