[GT] Flames vs Hawks

[GioforPM]

Spenser Knight bit haaaard on that one.

Backs, wtf are you doing? That is not how you tank either. Although waiving your NMC would be really nice.

His sister had a tear in her eye.

What a goal by Backlund! He should be on team Sweden.

In fact, they often get called up on short term fill ins. It's a little temporary reward.

All of the young kids have gotten as much or more opportunities as Hunt.

And yes, it was dumb of Sweeen to leave Backs off. He's perfect for international defence play.

[GioforPM]

Nice try by Huberdeau.

[OldSam]

What an effort, Backs. With his sister and nephew in the stands.

I see Huska's homeboy Hunt is in the lineup

[thefoss1957]

Just got back from Nephrologist appointment in SLC. A 2.5 hr ride each way for a 10 minute Dr. visit. Happily, my beans improved from CKD4 to CKD3.


Turning on the game...it looks like total fail goaltending. 2 goals on 3 shots for your guys 1 goal on 4 shots for mine...

only his 3rd game of the year despite being over PPG in the AHL. Some homeboy

Love seeing the clip of Backlund's sister crying after his goal.

When was the last time Dauphin was called up? In 2022?

The Flames have 35 games remaining after this one. Each one of them is a development opportunity. It's also an opportunity to find out what you have on the farm.

A guy like Kerins didn't look out of place, but was sent down so that players that were underperforming at the time in Sharangovich and Zary could get consistent top 9 minutes. I bet Gridin would look much better now that he has half a pro season under his belt.

Are 3 games enough to know what we have in Kerins/Stromgren?

That camera angle is amazing for watching plays develop

Kerins totally looked overwhelmed. And Stromgren is still up and will get more games.

Great shift by Dryden Hunt

Crazy to think this is his best game since becoming a flame

Reminds me of my old seats in Sec 222 at the Dome. Great scout seats.

Hunt is a legit decent player...he is often the Wranglers best player. I know I know his age.
