I thought tonight was definitely a contender for worst game from him so far, he wasn't feeling it tonight.
Ritchie was better than horrible, honestly pretty much solid. Good play on the Dube goal.
Lewis is just a decent guy and Pitlick doesn't get a lot of appreciation but he's quietly solid.
Coleman has really been impressing though, his feet don't stop. I feel like that's the difference between looking good and not is if you're skating. That's a little bit of what's hurting Monahan right now, he's not skating enough. Gliding too much.
Good to see a lot of positive posts last few games. Sometimes after a game, it is good to just enjoy the win. Flames stuck together and played a tough team. Gudbranson may not have had his best game but he used his size and was a difference maker. Monahan might still be recovering a bit, made some good defensive plays and was engaged. Everyone contributed to the win.

I would have effing lost it if Seattle took Kylington instead of Gio!
And that is why it was the right choice to let Gio go with one year left on his contract rather than giving up an additional asset for them to select Kylington instead.
And to think that some were saying we should waive Kylington rather than sending Mickie down, when the latter didn’t need waivers.
I think some credit goes to the Flames bringing the right players.
I think we are on the same page, a nice balance between size and skill. The opposition will think twice about making the game a battle of attrition. I guess the true test will be when we play divisional opponents. I suspect the “one who is pee” will continue to stare at his skates.

I've said it a few times in the past, and I probably said it before the expansion draft, Kylington has always been a better defenseman than Shea Theodore, who absolutely blew up in Vegas. If he were a Kraken, he'd probably be getting 20+ minutes a night there already.
and we had people on here who wanted to make a side deal with Seattle for them not to take Giordano....

I'm still very critical of Treliving but I don't think the time to do it is after going 5-0 on a road trip. Debates about roster construction and cap space usage can wait for another day.
