Certainly has potential. Just needs to learn how to use that mass. Too bad he cannot go to the AHL.

Porier is brutal. Time to cut our losses. Dumb draft pick.

Like some of the speed I've seen tonight, but I think the Flames overall are too lightweight. Getting pushed off the puck too easily and not able to separate pucks in the corners.

Time for a little alcoholic soother and some Aussie Netflix. :-)

I'm out - game isn't interesting enough to spend more time with.

Disappointed in the PTO guys and can't wait to see a regular lineup.

I think Tkachuk is getting his 9 games. Beyond that, we'll see.

Did Wideman shrink? He looks tiny out there

Former Failed draft pick Gilles is atleast keeping the game respectable.

He is going to be Yuge.

Just make all of the cuts after tonights game so we can have a few games to practice with a regular line up.

With a new coach, its important to work out all of the kinks and get the system set in the players minds.

Another slow start to a season will be killer. Oh and Sign Johnny. Maybe after today's game BT phones Johnny's agent.

Grossman is so slow that he can't even hit people. Like the physics don't work at such slow speeds.

I'm sure BT will get spooked by a pre season game and totally cave.

Backlund with some great shifts in the third.

I do like how Tkachuk drives the net regardless if he has the puck or not.

I don't know what mindset the PTOs have. But whatever it is, they need to have the opposite mindset.
