Its already been conclusively stated that management is cool with that.
At the end of the day we're a cap-floor team, whats one more salary?
Honestly though, Bennett scares the crap out of me. Hes good, really good, but hes been getting rocked with almost Hall-sian regularity.

The #Flames are preparing rookie Sam Bennett to play on top line, just in case. Not buying any thought he could be healthy scratch.
Randy Sportak @SUNRandySportak
The more I’m watching #Flames, looks like Diaz-Schlemko on third pair.
Oh, and Jiri Hudler has very little oomph on his shot.

Ah 'expletive!'

Not sure why Shore wouldn't be in. He was one of our better players the other game including his work to set up Jooris on the breakaway. His penalty was tough, but it wasn't a lack of discipline. Hartley just hates him.
and I don't get why we keep sticking to Brodie Engelland.
Meanwhile Bollig is invisible all playoffs (other than a flukey one timer that bounced to him) but gets guaranteed minutes.

How is it dumb? If tomorrow was the 10th game for Bennett and he was not practicing on a line like he has been for the last 2 weeks it would be majorly suspicious and go against everything management had claimed.

Harley says medical staff has given Giordano clearance to "ramp it up"
Says Wideman and Hudler will play tomorrow. Ferland "hopefully"
Jokes that in California they get a swimming lesson first followed by hockey practice after Flames had to get the zamboni to dry scrape because the ice was too wet.
Diaz gametime decision

One-armed Gio might be our best answer for Getzlaff-Perry, unfortunately.

Because management has been quoted multiple times saying that it's not a factor and that it's Hartley's decision.

"Gio is still very far" - Hartley
Says nothing has changed with regards to Giordano's time table

I knew this before I had made my original post.
That's why I thought it was funny that he wasn't practicing on a line like he has been, it completely contradicted what management has been saying this whole time.

If the 6th defenseman is only going to play a few minutes, might as well dress someone who isn't 100% or just dress 13 forwards.

What if I d-man gets injured during the game? Can't play with 4. Need to dress 6.

You missed the post which states he is staking / subbing on the top line.

Those posts didn't come out till after I had made my original post.
Moving on now. Great to see Diaz is looking healthy and a game time decision for tomorrow!

Hudler at far less than 100% and Ferland on the bike. Still hopeful but really not looking promising...

May 2 Practice - Giordano (limited contact) & Hudler return!
Once the playoffs are over, can't wait to see how many injuries the team has been playing through this run

So, has a concussion been ruled out for Ferland? Presumably as he's on a bike there. Sorry if it's been mentioned elsewhere.
