1) Whichever line Gaudreau is on is the 1st line
2) people make way too big of a deal about the line numbers - sometimes it's good to create balance across the lines, especially on the road.

I think some suffer from short term memory loss.
So many people were ready to move on from Cammalleri for so many reasons. We wanted to get younger, we wanted to rebuild, we could only afford to have so many small players on our roster, we wanted to get bigger, we wanted to shed salary...on and on and on.
Now we hit a losing skid and all I see are posts wistfully remembering Iginla and Cammalleri and wanting them back on the team. Can't have it both ways folks. You wanted the rebuild, you got it. This streak is part of it. The other part is making the 2nd round of the playoffs last year. You know which two players weren't anywhere near the 2nd round of the playoffs last year? Iginla and Cammalleri.
So Cammy is on a bit of a hot streak, which he has always had a knack for. Big deal. Doesn't make me want him back on the team any time soon. It was the right decision to let him go then, and it hasn't really changed.

BTW, Lee Stempniak has 7 points this year in 9 games for the Devils. Anyone missing Stempy these days too?

I always wanted to keep Stempniak.
I'd rather have him for two more years at $3M than Raymond.

Me too, but I'd rather not have either. Raymond has been a horrible disappointment.

Don't disagree with you, just a perspective, but a lot of the things you say that we wanted havent happened, have we gotten bigger? Maybe but not by much, have we shed salary? Some but we're a cap team at this point. And we really only have 1 rookie in the lineup this year. So while I agree this is part of the rebuild I can see why some are might feel like this is same old song and dance with possible worse results.

Bollig + Engelland + Raymond = Cammy and change.
Wouldn't exactly call that a great trade off by Burke and co.

Johnny with 2, Bennett with 2.
Flames still struggle to keep the puck out of their net,...
5-4 OT loss

7 defencemen taking warm-up for #Flames, including TJ Brodie and Ladislav Smid. Most likely, one of them is in, the other out.

Hmm...is that after he comes in late in the 2nd after Hiller has already let in 5+ goals? Don't see many other scenarios where he gets the shutout tonight.

Already have a feud going with Chris Neil on the sens blue line during warm up. Did the imaginary glove drop with him during the warm up. He came back 30 seconds later and checked the boards right in front of me...Hard. Could be a fun night...also gotta credit him, good sport lol
