People are rightfully skeptical about if the Sutter hiring was his call.

Truth is, it doesn’t matter who’s call it was, it was the right move and he’s an elite legendary coach and now they look like a real force. Time to just enjoy the success they are having.

I thought Pitlick was a pretty good top 9 forward last season. Not sure why he's a completely different player this season.

Ideally..

Even two proper 3rd liners that can give you 30 pts would be a sizeable upgrade.

Quota call

I'm guessing the Yotes will pull the goalie on this PP pretty quickly.

I think Kessel would be an awesome fit with Sutter actually. Plus he’s American and we have built Team USA so would fit in

[direwolf]

Make up call.

[Deegee]

Man Arizona is a terrible team. They look slow.

Yet, the Flames are 12th in NHL in G/GP at 3.17 .

2nd in NHL in GA/GP.
