[GT] BOA: Magnificent Flames vs. No Good Oilers

[djsFlames]

If Kyl isn't healthy, they should be sitting him.

I hope Sutter isn't letting guys play through moderate ailments while they're atop the division with games in hand.

Use Stone. Use Mackey. Use Valimaki.

Although I love that Sutter doesn't help the media build narratives and stories for them. And he gets real terse when the questions are silly to him.

That 11 second answer was kind of a long one for him.

It’s not surprising the employer wants them to pump their team and their star.

Follow the money.

Rogers Arena was in Vancouver long before that.

Woodcroft is probably a decent teaching coach like GG is. He's chatty becuase that's who he is. He'll be on the first bus out of town when Lowe finds a bigger name.

You ask Sutter the right questions you get thoughtful answers. You ask him something that is borderline opinion or deemed just wanting to hear you as a reporter hear your own voice, he gets short.

Me too, felt they were a puck bobble away from striking a couple times.

The guy is obvious playing hurt. Probably shouldn't even be in the lineup based on how bad the injury looked, but Flames gon Flame

Are you saying Oliver shouldn’t be in the lineup?

I’ll take the Flames Doctors and trainers opinion.

But thanks anyway.

That’s absolutely going through my mind too

I actually think that period was the Flames game plan. Check the two top lines into the ground and see if 3 and 4 can score against weaker opposition.

Eventually the Oilers will put their top 2 guys together and then the top line can go against someone else.

Eric Francis is an idiot

Mangiapane and Toffoli on the same line as our most productive per minute centre outside of Lindholm

"demotion"

I am also saying there were a LOT of games Monahan should not have been in the lineup a year ago.

You are welcome.

Well, TBF, it’s a centre coming off a 3 game benching.

Don’t speak of things that you know, literally, nothing about.

I do think Monahan either has lost a lot on his shot or has a confidence issue (or both) but that play wasn’t an example.

I mean, Sutter did explicitly say on the radio today that some defencemen were banged up and that’s why he mentioned running with 7 D

Pushing a McDavid story to the second intermission? Ryan Leslie may not be around for the second intermission. That's a full hour away and at 1130pm EST not 1030.

Sutter may be old-school but he’s not an idiot. He wouldn’t be risking A key member of the D core in an ultimately inconsequential game.

I have resorted to 100% boycotting anything by Eric Francis.

If he’s on TV, the radio, web, I will not watch/listen/read.

[dino7c]

I don't think he fanned on the puck twice and held onto the puck too long because he is injured...he facked up. Hopefully he can calm down, not the first time Kylington got crazy legs

[scobel]

Meaghan Mikkelson sounded really good on the panel, first time seeing her, but enjoyed her commentary.
