Thought the Flames looked great tonight, especially the Frolik-Benent-Backlund line. Wow were they dominant.
Of the new guys, really liked a lot of them tonight. Lucic was every bit as solid as I thought he’d be. DSP was very good. McDonald was noticeable. Even Rinaldo showed some speed and edge.
Talbot though, woof. Never really saw anything in him. Still not sure why the Flames brass decided to sign him and at that $$$ figure. I’ll give him a pass tonight because it’s the preseason, but those first 2 goals cannot go in at this level. He better figure it out quick because this team cannot have a repeat of first half Smith again.
