The Flames win because of skill. Adding a guy won’t change them into a tough team
We’ve said this team has needed an identity for years. They have one. And more often than not that’s how they win
Don’t try and change that. They need to own what they are and beat teams on that basis

Until our skill gets so banged up from cheap slashes, hits after the whistle and so on that we're a step slower over 7 games.
We don't need a Peluso out there. We need a guy who can play up and down the lineup and discourage the dirty stuff.
My vote is Ferland. I'd accept Simmons. Maroon isn't going to get it done. But even Maroon adds more to this lineup than Mangiapane or Hathaway
