Why does nobody really move very much on the PP?

There is almost no chance they are being told to be essentially stationary. It’s bizarre, and so easy to defend.

you see, savard has been chugging cheeseburgers since retirement, so he doesnt like to move much. Monkey see, monkey do

No, no... PP stands for Perimeter Play!

The powerplay is so slow and predictable. Dostal seems like a good goalie for the Ducks to roll out if they want a top pick.

Our PP was pretty decent during the Gaudreau/Monahan years. Pretty sad what it's become since then.

The last Dube shot attempt reminded me of this:

Depends on the year, they were 3rd worst in the league in the last Gulutzan year. In fact it was the main reason they missed the playoffs in 17-18

Hah, you probably saw me then. I was on that level for that game if it was the Calgary one. It’s way too small in my opinion. Four rows.

Vatrano is really trying to get under the Flames' skin. Good hits on Kadri/Pospisil, some pushing with Backlund a couple of shifts back.

Ya, I don't get it. I was so excited when they brought in Savard because he was such a smart offensive player.

If he breaks another digit, he might just win the Vezina.

you, me, and the cast of Super Troopers lol. I think its not great for a team where nobody shows up, but the Flames would sell that section out, maybe make it 6 rows instead of 4.
