Thought Granlund played his best game as a Flame tonight. He was all over the ice and consistently getting shots of for high quality chances. He wedged a key PK faceoff down the ice after Stajan got waved out and had a tantrum, and appears to be getting better with faceoffs. It doesn't appear Hartley has any interest in Bennett playing centre right now, which is fine - we need his offense and if he can't be a top 6 defensive centre, keep him where he helps most. As good as Colborne was, I would've given the 3rd star to #60.

Speaking of Bennett. I and others have made Corey Perry comparisons, but I can't help but feel these are a little misplaced. Bennett will never be the physical speciman Perry is. But watch that kid play down low and tell me you don't see some Sidney Crosby.

Monahan, Johnny, Brodie and Hamilton were all excellent. Wideman and Gio had strong games as well. David Jones was especially bullish tonight, he crashed the net a bunch and was a factor all night.

Hope frolik is alright. That's a dirty hit.

This is a decent team. Props to Hiller for gutting it out. Get them a goalie.
