This has been a pretty bad strategy tonight. Turn pucks over and not defend worth a ####. Bold strategy.

Doesn’t seem a great risk reward in favour of signing.

$4.1 million more expensive, but, yeah.

I’m still seeing a team that can’t break out of their own zone with any pace.

Zary should be on the top line in the AHL, not the 4th line center for the Flames. I watched him a lot last year and I think he will develop better with one more year or at least half a year in the AHL.

They can't get out of their own zone at all. The odd time they do they just turn it over. Whatever this is please don't use it come regular season.

Man, do the Flames look like they are disinterested and bored and couldn't give a damn about if their passes connect or not.

It’s preseason and I really only tune in usually to the last couple games before the regular season, but would be nice to see Lindholm step up and earn a contract. Should not be paying for his production 2 years ago. Idk, just so invisible for long stretches of play last season and this game looks pretty similar. I just don’t think you pay a guy 10 million a year to be a solid 2 way C. He needs to be dynamic play driver and I just don’t think that ever will be him

It looks exactly like the same team from last year so far. I hope it's just a matter of them needing time to adjust.

If I'm Conroy I'm pointing to the Kadri contract as a reference.

They're going to have to figure out what to do with only Andersson and Weegar on defense for next year.

Huberdeau and Lindholm just can’t make a play together.

How has Huby looked tonight? Dynamic driver or similar to last year?

Pick up a fast and gritty guy from waivers who is suited to a 4th line role. Zary will play when he is ready.
