At the start of the season I thought Dubé and Monahan were good NHLers. Watching them play with Brett Ritchie I stopped believing that for a while.
But the Flames have a good roster now. It’s full of actual good hockey players, and the gamebreakers are showing they’re on the same level as the best guys in the league. They need to keep doing it and keep striving to be the best. They haven’t accomplished any thing but they are putting themselves in the right position to do so in the spring.
