Dec 18 Practice

Oh that is good news.

I was fearing it'd be months and require surgery.

Yep, saw Millions tweeting the same info. Didn't bother to put in a quote because I thought Sureloss would have put up a post before me.

Anyway, very good news. Yeah, a few weeks isn't great, but its far better than 4-6 months with surgery being required that I thought might be the case.

May be those gears have been christened by Kipper

Good news about Frolik. As for Ramo let's dress him head to toe in Kipper gear and die his hair red if it helps. Goalies are a weird bunch.

So does Ramo play back-to-back or Hiller is in for Detroit?

Engelland's bad give away passes are creeping in again. I would put Smid in for him as well.

Me too. Smid was arguably outplaying both Engelland and Russell, but had to sit. Not as physical as Engelland or as good a skater as Russell, but he is decent at net clearing, and he is much better passing out of the zone than either of those guys (both of whom always ring the puck).

This is an excellent question. I'd say if Ramo wins in STL, start him in Detroit.

@NicholsOnHockey: McKenzie: Johnny Gaudreau is one of best offensive players in NHL. "He's one of the most exciting, dynamic performers out there." #Flames

Edit: Bob Mckenzie also says Gaudreau/Monahan could be the Calgary Flames' Toews and Kane:

That MacKenzie. No wonder he's got half million followers with ground breaking insider info like that.

That's great praise!

You have to start Hiller after Sunday. Just cuz Ramo has Kippers gear we shouldn't work him to death like Kipper. If we make the show were going to wish Ramo had more nights off...
