This seems like one of those games Peters mentioned where he can give the big minute players a rest.

Pro tip: When you make the bet, claim you’ll eat the pubes of someone who doesn’t have any. Like Kendall Jenner, for instance.

Peters may be just resting the top lines. It's still the 4th line. It's the Flame's 4th scoring line, not many teams have that

I’d say you are wise, but you don’t like pineapple on pizza so that can’t be true

Yep. We're crawling into resting the top players territory for the remainder of the season. I think its important to remember that. We're just supremely spoiled that the 4th line is playing so well ATM.

Rolling at a solid 75% effieciency. Ottawa is plucky but the 4th line is doing good things like producing goals and solid play.

I don’t think the flames have the luxury to rest their top players until they clinch the west. Home Ice is too important for the way this team operates.

Not much intensity. Doing what they have to. Looks like an October game.

It's a luxury. And They fully intend to use it. Peters intimating this very thing recently. Home ice is nice but being as healthy as possible heading into the grind is nicer.

Can’t say I agree with you. Home Ice is the difference between winning a series against a team like Vegas, SAN Jose or Winnipeg. It’s the key to the cup final.

True, but the Flames are up by 2 vs the worst team. Not gonna find a better time to rest players,
