Should be a good game, Flames rested (too rested maybe) and Leafs finding some stride here. I think the Flames are better, but I'm not sure how fair of a demonstration today's game is. Schedule is so weird.
But I feel vastly different going into every game this year, I feel like the top 4 D is very good, and the goaltending will be there, and the re-slotting of the forwards is just a huge improvement. Backlund at 3C makes him dominant, Monahan at 2C makes him dominant, and hopefully Lindy can just keep the other team's top line at bay, and I think he can.

McDavid made Brodie his bitch with regularity.

Afternoon game, 5 day break, against a returning player for the first time
Automatic loss
I’ll be in the PGT with my hot take ready to go though

being postponed didn't seem to bother Dallas, I don't accept 5 days off as an excuse

Jesus, some of these opinions are insufferable
McDavid made Morgan Reilly look like a fool. That is the highlight you are looking for
Listening to some of the idiotic takes in this thread, you would think Brodie was a minus 100 player rather than they guy that Gio trusted and played so well with that he ended up being a Norris winner

Easy game for them to get up for. 4 point game against one of the teams the Flames will be battling for playoff positioning.

Also no ill will towards Brodie. Liked him when he was here and I thought he was a great Flame. You could make a highlight (lowlight)package of gaffs for every Dman in the NHL. There was more good than bad with him and I am good with that. Now, if he gets a bit of the yips coming back to Calgary, I am fine with that. He can find his game when the Leafs play the Oilers and Canucks 5 time after our pair of games.

Jacob Markstrom will start for #Flames, Jack Campbell for #MapleLeafs. Dillon Dube is not warming-up for @NHLFlames, Auston Matthews is for @MapleLeafs.

Isn’t every game a four point game?

My god some of you are sensitive about a guy who plays a kids game for millions of dollars getting ribbed a bit
I hope we see 2019 playoffs Brodie today, would be advantageous for a Flames win
