Bob Hartley also confirmed Sam Bennett will play center tonight. Micheal Ferland and Josh Jooris will play on the wings with him.

I was looking at the projected lines on the Flames website, Nakladal really adds to the Flames dreaminess.

lol.."Spooner"
And so I take it people like Nakladal so far?
Oh man, if Oreo gets the start in Anaheim and somehow backstops them to a win, that alone would make him a legend in these parts. NHL bust or not.

8-5 Canucks. I hate the Canucks with a passion and want the Flames to win this one but Hiller gives me zero faith that is possible.

Not just Sam at center, but I freakin love that line. Season just got mad exciting. I just wish it were Granlund on the Backs line instead of Joe "turnovers"

Maybe last year.
I'll be shocked if that line is effective tonight. Ferland and Jooris aren't doing much this season. I guess it makes sense to shelter Bennett in his first few games at center though. Hope it clicks.

I predict a Flames win. 4-2 with an empty net goal. Gonna get real crazy here and predict that Hiller has a good game tonight!

Sounds like they've given up on this season?

I don't think they've "given up" I think they're being realistic about things. It's like saying "I've given up on dating Scarlet Johansen" because that happening and the Flames making the playoffs are close to about the same odds.
This just seems like the team is doing things now to see what they'll have in the future. Nakladal, Wootherspoon, Bennett at centre and probably Ortio getting a string of starts soon are all like another training camp to evaluate what this team has in it's young players.

It's pretty obvious they've unofficially thrown in the towel I think. But no one's gonna say it.

That should be the official home uniform. No reason to mess with it.
