Of course. Iginla is one of the toughest players in to ever play in the league while also being an elite scorer. If Klapka can take on a fraction of Iginla’s playstyle, he could be a force in this league as it’s even more rare now to have players like that. There are no players like Iginla left in the league.

A good win, good trade, a playoff spot and lots of young players playing great.
Really didn't expect to be in such an optimistic spot heading into February.
This season is turning into a lot more fun than expected.

That hit on Wilson might be a turning point for Klapka.

If you can crush Wilson like that you can pretty much body anybody in this league, and gives you the confidence to do it more often.

After 50 games, we're in a playoff spot. I like that.

Man, Klapka should be playing here than Duehr. Now find proper 4th line C and make 4th line helpful to win games.

Klapka should talk to Mr. Iginla before every game.

Hopefully Klapka captures that game he had tonight in a bottle and runs with it.

6'8" 240lbs power forwards don't grow on trees.

He seems like a gentle giant. Needs to channel his inner mean guy on the ice though.

Iggy was always nice too.....until he got on the ice to play hockey. I imagine that might have been something he talked to Klapka about.

Imagine when Zary comes back, wherever he slots in the top 9 means they could move Pospisil to 4LC

Lomberg-Pospisil-Klapka

Chaos.

Yeah, that would be fantastic. And the way to do it is to put Farabee on Kadri's line (fast, gritty, and can score)

Huberdeau - Kadri - Farabee
Zary - Frost - Sharangovich
Coleman - Backlund - Coronato
Lomberg - Pospisil - Klapka

I thought that was the best game I have seen Klapka play as a Flame.

Fun game to watch. Wolf looked great. Best part was Pachal at the end. Truly a FAFO moment for whomever he smacked. Push a player into the goalie, get smacked in the mouth immediately after by said player. Absolutely perfect ending and 100% deserved.

If Klapka can keep that up? We might have ourselves a player.

And despite everything else I think we need to extend Kudos to our very own Nazem Kadri.

We've all wanted to punch Trouba in the face like we're starting a lawnmower but Kadri actually sacked up and did it...so...



Eat Kadri fist Trouba!

Only able to watch peices, but as much good things as there was, Kadri fighting Trouba was maybe the most impressive. I know Trouba really isn't a fighter either, but no fear from Kadri to take on a guy he's giving up a few inches and about 40lbs to, which is a good sign where his headspace is at.
