The only really dangerous scoring chances for the Flames 3v3 was when Monny and Shilly were on the ice.

There's a fantastic animated tourism commercial that gets played every commercial break on my NHL stream.
They've already played it 10-15 times this game.

I guess most of you in Calgary aren't seeing what I'm seeing.

I believe all are even strength pts as well.

It's beyond stupid.

And even more so for Sutter.

I think it's nuts that a guy who was arguably our worst player through 10-12 games, demoted to centering the 4th line, was playing exclusively on the top PP unit, while our best goalscorer was not considered an option... yet here we are.

This also doesn't mean I think Hanifin sucks. I think defensively he is our 2nd best defenceman behind Tanev.

Hanifin should be what he is developing into - a large bodied 200 foot minute eating D man, like a Jaybo. Everyone here complained about Jaybo because they wanted more points from him. Then he went away and won gold medals and Stanley cups a playing his game.

Kylington can be what he is. He has a completely different skill set than Hanifin, even down to their different skating styles, though they are both great skaters.

It’s not necessary to compare one to the other. They’re both on the team.

Let's go, Flames!

As you’re stating, complete and utter nonsense .

Darryl is ONLY interested in what it takes to win.

If Sutter thought that would give the team a better chance of winning he would be doing it
Just that simple
You’ve manufactured quite the little storyline up there in your head

…. Irrelevant to your claim.

I think Hanifin is more a McDonagh/Bouwmeester type, a safe and steady low-event minute-muncher who brings stability to the back end.

I was hoping for more offense from him after he put up 10 points in 20 games after Sutter took over last season, but even without the offense he's still a player that contenders have.


Put Kylington on the PP after extending him.

[Flames1217]

Kylington gonna get paid...

So suttee thinks Hanifin/Andersson give the PP a better chance to win

If you ask me, THAT is quite the little storyline

[Manhattanboy]

Jim Kyte still in hockey today?

[GioforPM]

Nice first line shift.

I definitely agree but I was hoping he'd take a step offensively this year.
