Flames Time to get Kraken. Seattle @ Calgary. 7pm MT. calgaryflames.com

Return of Gio. Top 6 gets it first preseason action.

Looks like Calgary is icing close to it's opening day roster minus Markstrom, Dube, and Monahan

Better line up for the Kraken than last night. Looks like a decent lineup for the Flames too!
So this is Gio's big return huh? Weird.

This is probably the first time I played close attention to a pre-season game day roster. Are the teams allowed to dress extra players during pre-season games? Because the Flames have 8 D and 12 F on that list.

The return of Gio. A preseason game on a Wednesday night. Feels very strange.

Hope the Flames can start scoring some goals. It's still early but would be nice to have some offensive confidence before the games mean something.

Good thing we are playing some offensive players in this game, its their first game in awhile though, I would temper expectations.

No. 8 D listed because Sutter probably hasn't made a decision yet (or at least hasn't told the PR guys) to as which of d-men are playing.

I was still hoping one of Pelletier, Ruzicka, Phillips, or Popisil smashed camp and made the team. Not looking like it so far.

Going to be so strange seeing Giordanos head sticking out of another jersey.

I understand why it happened but I don't like it.

Is it sad that this expansion team's D looks much better than ours?

I wonder if this is an indication that Monahan still isn't 100%. Also, is Markstrom nursing something?

Of course, from what I remember, Kipper and Iggy didn't play a lot of preseason games when Darryl was around the last time.

Pretty disappointing they're having Gio's return be a preseason game. Come on Seattle. That's weak.

“John” Gaudreau does not sound right.

Really good to see. Hope he shines with the defensive virtuoso that is Chris Tanev

By the end of the year it would be great to see Zadorov as the #6, Gudbranson in the minors and a D core of young, agile, two way players with puck skills

Go Flames go!

I'd be taking my dad to see this game, but we've decided against going to the Saddledome for now, which is a bit of a shame. But...wings and beers night!

Sutter indicated that Monahan and Hanifin wouldn't see game action until the end of the preseason schedule.
