Flames recall Andersson from Stockton
Eric Francis @EricFrancis
Flames brass huddling up with doctors momentarily and will announce this morning how long Travis Hamonic is expected to miss. Not good. Rasmus Andersson will be at Flames practice this morning, but will Prout draw in Saturday instead to add muscle?
Quote:
The Flames also announced that defenceman Travis Hamonic has been placed on the IR, retroactive to October 3rd, with a facial fracture (week-to-week).

I, for one, sure hope that Prout does not draw into the lineup tomorrow night.
How will the pairings break down in the light of this news? Will Andersson take Hamonic's spot with Hanifin? I would guess the Flames are more reluctant to have two rookies on the third pairing together.

Hanifin-Stone and Valimaki-Andersson instead of Prout, please.

If you’re going to fight out of your weight class, don’t do it after a 2 minute interference minor.
If Gudbranson was a second later that hit is completely clean. Take the power play and hope he does it again all game.

To look on a positive side -- this should be another great audition opportunity for Rasmus.

Stone seems to play better with more ice time. So instead of throwing the rookies in separate lines, I would put Stone with Hanifin and ride the top 4 harder. It's a home game so Peters would be able to shelter them as needed.

I don't think they would pair two rookies up this early in the season.

I hope Andersson makes it difficult for them to send him back down

Keep Valimaki with Stone. Slot Anderson in with Hanifin.
Play the top pairing 26 minutes a game and the bottom two 17 each.

This hurts more than the game 1 loss. Optimistic that Andersson can perform in the short term, and I hope Hamonic isn't on the shelf for too long.

Hanifin - Andersson
Valimaki - Prout
It should happen. It won’t happen.

Did Andersson take any laps with Hanifin in the preseason? I seem to remember seeing this in a game, but can't be sure.
