Blues PBP guys have been hearing Payako's shot is on the same level of Weber. So says their goalies.

Because forwards are not responsible for defence

If Kulak is going to pinch like that he's gotta make sure he keeps it in or that it's not an odd man break going the other way. He'll learn as he goes.

We've been bad defensively the first 3 games giving up way too many chances. Granlund has played in the NHL before, is it that far fetched especially after a good camp from him?

I'm all for a Granlund call-up, but in place of who? Bollig is the obvious choice but we know he's not going anywhere. Who else does he slot in ahead of?

1st period was good, lots of shot attempts.
2nd they seem to be flat, shots are low. Blues have adjusted and are checking the Flames 1st line better.
You take the good and the bad with Wideman. It nets out positive.

Would Bouma be an option? Have not noticed him much this season.

He's stuck playing with two useless anchors in Bollig and Bouma.

Granlund is just an odd campaign when rallying a point about defense. I haven't seen him play much, but he isn't exactly renowned for his 2-way play. Moreover, I understand he has some significant issues on faceoffs, which of course is a major part of controlling the play and being proactive defensively.
