It's been pretty good hockey in the last few minutes.

Helluva save by Nilsson on the tip by Versteeg.

The Flames' cycle looks good so far at least.

I hated when we played against Smith, he would always make 40+ saves every time.

I'm not sure I remember the Flames ever scoring on Smith because of bad puck handling.

If so I'd say we're more likely looking at 1-2 bad goals per game than 1-2 per season like people have been saying
If he gives up 2 bad goals a game he won't be around long. Not happening.

He can be high-risk, high-reward, but that comes with the territory. I kind of like it.

Versteeg & Bennett look good. Wonder if Lazar plays on that line Saturday to give things a different look

Agreed, but that doesn't fit the narrative.

Put Versteeg back on his natural right side, Jankowski on the left wing.
