Great OP as always, but man, how have I just recently noticed how terrible the Win Column is? Terrible writing, and at one point I was staring at a single, two sentence paragraph nearly crowded out by four giant ads.
Yeah not to mention the over the top Coronato hysteria.
Weird. He's not the guy who's going to carry the team but I thought he was strong against Winnipeg. Non-stop motor and doesn't take shifts off.

Same folks who amplified the fake story about Parekh.
Just total trash.
I don't know if we can discredit agents now. We have had our issues with them over the last few years.
Walsh and the Huberdeau stuff. Zadorov and his agent requesting for a trade mid game when we played Toronto. Hanifins agent sabotaging the trade market for him.
I like Vladar and what he's provided us over the years, but Wolf is the future. He needs to be playing. Should be no less than a 50/32 split. 60/22 would be even more ideal.
I'm getting very tired of not being allowed to find out what he's made of because people are too afraid to make a decision and stand by it. I haven't seen anything from Wolf's career that makes me think he needs the constant threat of replacement in order to be good. In fact, I get the sense it's the opposite with him... he thrives more by actually being the guy, not by fighting to convince people that he could be the guy.
I think Huska confuses which one is Sharangovich and which one is Pospisil as he switched their lines.
Anyway they will lose if they partied yesterday or they may win if they are planning party tonight.
I'm really curious to see how the Huberdeau Pospisil Mantha line does tonight. I was looking at their overall numbers and was surprised the coaching staff is sticking with that trio. However I missed the game vs the Jets and taking a look at their numbers as a line in that one maybe they are turning things around?
Expected goals for: 75%
Corsi: 60%
That's a good sign against a good team. I've started to grow frustrated with Mantha, so any sign that he will help the team and build up his value is good to see.

Wolf is the guy 100% make no mistake and we are definitely finding out what he is this season. I think the 50/50 split is a clear indication of the staff trying to ease both goalies into the lineup and get them feeling good about their games. Wolf is slowly separating himself from Vladar, but you have to look at a body of work of more than 5-6 starts this year before you start to deviate.
Barring injury, I fully expect the Flames will start Wolf ~50 games. Anything beyond that is not realistic and actually is quite pointless. He needs to be fresh and practicing well just as much as playing regularly to develop properly at this level.
