Seems very unlikely to me that Coronato doesn’t stick with the Flames. Who do you see bumping him off the roster?

Having Sharangovich and Lindholm on their off wings on the PP hopefully. With the success Lindholm had launching one timers the previous season it felt like Lindy was seriously misused on the Powerplay.

When we had a very successful PP with Tkachuk and Gaudreau, Lindholm was actually used on the Right side very successfully. Most of his goals came from the Right circle(R2)/the high slot.

Here are Lindholm's PP goals in 2021-22

Yeah he'd take the pass and do that little quick shift to his right move that would throw the goalie off, then a quick wrist shot for a goal. He got so good at that.

I was just looking into it now, and surprisingly Lindholm had the same amount of goals last year 5 on 4 as the year before(10). He actually had more 3 more points last year than the year before in 8 less minutes on the PP. That said, I really missed seeing his shot as a threat last year.

a buddy of mine (canucks fan) was asking me earlier about the flames lineup for tonight
i reply... new coach with totally new systems - you might as well 'figure it out' with your main guys in preseason rather than in games that are worth points.
he replied that that makes sense... but did laugh that it's basically the flames vs the canucks youngstars from penticton

Can't wait to read GTs again, and all their accompanying drama

Because we didn't have enough in the offseason.

[Bingo Jr.]

Flames hockey is back! LFG

Intrigued to see how Ruzicka looks with Kadri and Dube, could be fireworks

It's often said that Vancouver is no good.

Also confirmed

Seems this may be on Sportsnets 4k channels. Any chance they’re actually broadcasting with 4k equipment these days?

Correction required.

So is Sportsnet+ a good streaming options? Seems to be 20/month. Finally ditched even my basic cable and it seems like a decent option. The app through my Samsung TV isn't the best but trying the Sens-Leafs game earlier it was high quality when the stream started

I just subscribed today. Cheaper than cable that’s for sure

Woo hoo! Hockey's back!

Go Flames go!

[Reggie Dunlop]

Expecting a big game from Klapka.
