I'm glad. I've liked the look of Shore. Could be Stajans replacement so that makes sense

Hopefully the last few games show the Flames how disposable the second pairing is. Don't think they've improved the team defensively whatsoever, outside of a couple games.

Maybe BT will feel confident about dealing one or both for the needed skill up front.

Just finish the season strong... This may me off topic and a little "ranty", but Bennett really needs to prove himself worthy of a top 6 spot for next season with these last few games. We're patiently waiting on him to break out, but if he doesn't achieve that we may be shopping him either at the TDL or shipping his RFA rights away during the 2019 draft.

Go Flames! Despite this season being a huge disappointment I’m still optimistic the same guys that are playing tonight can have success next season.

Taking my daughter to her first Flames game tonight. I'm sure we will only last a few periods (she's 4) but at this point all I'm looking forward to is Harvey the Hound and a malt (or 2).

A few periods? So the entire game

If the Flames get down early, this one might not even last a few.

I’d like to see the Flames get Bennett a shooting coach in the off-season. He gets his chances but struggles to finish.

He's back, and in plenty of time for the game. That Darn Puppet has secured his summer job - rocket scientist at the Churchill Research Range - and has already gotten to work on sending a few "volunteers" into orbit:


Spoiler!



Go Flames

Thanks Puppet Guy. I've always wanted a rocket ride.

Let us know if you have much luck getting close to Harvey. The last few games I’ve brought my daughters, the game was terrible and we only got a couple of looks at Harvey from the other side of he done.

But no, I won’t blame GG for that.

And you think winning a mean nothing game in April has some kind of effect come October?

That’s a stretch in my eyes, but hey, your opinion.

We're scratching Stajan NOW? He should've been the scratch many times earlier but he wasn't, and he's in the final few days of his NHL career and he's been scratched when the season doesn't matter? That's Glen Gulutzan for ya folks.

Imagine being Bennett and seeing all the young guys being put in a position to succeed, and all the bums GG keeps putting with Monahan and Gaudreau, and when you finally get that chance and look good you get pulled off that line. Oh, and being passed up for Troy freakin’ Brouwer on the PP.

Bennett must be frustrated. I want a new coach to come in and tell Bennett he’s playing on the first line, we don’t care if he struggles a bit, just go out and play.
