FFS...the Flames are up 3-1 against the best team in the league.

Why perpetuate this narrative?

Enjoy the team play and lead.

Because it's true? I mean, the guys playing his best hockey and gets bumped so poor Ryan can feel comfortable.

He is our Rodney Dangerfield.

I've only been able to see bits and pieces of this game. In the middle of the second period, Bennett was cycling out from the corner, made a move, and looked to the middle for a pass....

All four teammates were back at the line or behind it, playing defense.

Ryan has earned the right to play minutes over a long period of time.

Sam has not.

Flames add depth dman but Oilers added first line forwards (with less points than the Flames depth dman)

Doesn't matter if they're winning 10-0. If his playing ability is considerably above his teammates who cannot offensively contribute, while being withheld from replacing a player higher on the depth chart who isn't playing as well as he is, then it's still an issue. If it's preventing him from offensively producing when he is capable, it's an issue. Could be 12-0 then.

Don't be good, be great.

BS. I've seen much better and controlled play and chemistry with Bennett centering that line. Earned... what a load.
