Backlund right up in Gagner’s face. Good level of aggression there, love it!

Gillies will be working at the Calgary Fire Department before the end of the year.

Gillies can get a fresh start elsewhere. A-la Jack campbell. That was horrendous.

This reminds me of Flames Canucks in Calgary. Flames dominant in play, then relax their game. Gillies comes in and lets in softies. Flames lose.

So, these announcers do know how to do a PBP, right? Or do they just tell us useless info

He's gotta hug the post or come out a bit, can't leave some space there then try to hug it after the shot is taken from that angle. That's stuff that Smith was doing last year.

I'd say they try to trade him and eat some salary.

Gillies was almost-certainly going to be on waivers in the morning no matter what, but there's no doubt now.

His one-way contract likely means he's not tradeable.

You're right. Rittich has looked solid.
