The good:
Smith has been a pleasant surprise and has been unreal after a shaky preseason
Gaudreau looks to be back in superstar form
Hamonic and Brodie look really good together and the Flames could have 2 legit first pairings once the d-zone settles down a bit
I have been pleased with the play of our top pair, second line and Monahan as well
Signing Jagr was awesome and it is fun to see him out there in a Flames jersey
The bad
Brouwer is a 4th liner and it appears nothing more. No bounce back and a tough contract to live with
Sam Bennett is looking bad out there. Still takes bad penalties and not much danger from him in the offensive zone. I think he should be switched to wing here soon and I was a believer that he should be centre.
Lastly despite clearly making the team Jankowski is in the minors.
