some comments pertinent to Flames prospects plus Tkachuk.
Quote:

Juuso Valimaki, D (CGY): So much for a summer break: Valimaki played a ton here and had a very positive impact. He takes the extra second to make the right play with the puck and his rushing ability was noticeable.

Adam Fox, D (CGY): I’m confident in saying that Fox will be the most important blueliner on the team in Buffalo. His smarts, his patience and his offensive play are sights to behold.

Brady Tkachuk, LW (2018): Tkachuk took a ton of punishment in the Canada game – at one point he lost a glove but still stood in front of the net taking whacks until finally the Americans scored. But that’s his game and it was easy to see why he got as much of a role as he did.

Dillon Dube, LW (CGY): Very fast and very disruptive on the forecheck. It will be interesting to see how big a role he gets after playing on the team last year.
