That's fantastic news. Need them if they're going to keep pushing.

Zary apparently on a line with Backlund & Coleman

I am excited to see Zary and Bahl back for the first time since the Farabee and Frost acquisitions. It will be nice to see the whole team together.

OT, but is there a good source that shows a current list man games lost to injury? I searched but couldn't find one that looks accurate. I am curious as to where the Flames stand league-wide.

No call ups at least not yet. Though I wonder if we see Klapka if anyone.

Looking at that lineup we have no room for another winger in the top 9. You bring a Mercer, who comes out and who gets stuck playing 4th line minutes.

Hoping Zary on the wing is temporary. Really want him to keep developing as a centre.

Hopefully, they call Solovyov back up for Sunday. It was only one game, but I thought he played pretty well in his 19:24 TOI before the break.

It's either Zary or Frost on the wing.

This. I’m also ready to put Coronato with Zary. Let them develop chemistry. I also worry about Coronato with Kadri. Coronato plays best when he gets to carry the puck and make plays… Kadri is a bit of a puck hog who also gets frustrated with teammates who don’t get him the puck when he wants it (usually in the neutral zone)… this could lead to Coronato deferring to Kadri too much.

Zary on Backlund's line is a terrible idea - he is way past that.

Huberdeau - Kadri - Farabee
Zary - Frost - Coronato
Coleman - Backlund - Sharangovich

I’d go with what Rejean suggested - Rooney out of the lineup and go with Kadri-Zary-Frost-Backlund as the centers. Roll 4 lines even in 3rd periods. Won’t have to worry about the 4th line anymore as it is more of a 3rd line with strong defensive metrics. Solves several problems.

I really want to see that middle line together.

I mean if you want to ease him back in, may as well put him with the slowest line so he can't really over exert himself.

Frost since trade:
5 Games, 2 Goals

Farabee since trade:
5 games, 1 goal.

Now that they have had a break to settle in i expect both to come out flying.

Time to see what the team at "full power" can do. The Flames have about 2 weeks from the SJ game to the trade deadline.

Do we really need to discuss Backlund and ice time again?
