I expect Pelletier will have a decent camp and will at least grab a fourth line spot.

Kind of like Sharangovich last year.

I'd be super disappointed with Conroy if they put him on waivers unless he just absolutely stunk throughout camp and gave management no choice.

Him and Coronato have a lot to prove this camp. Excited to see.

Fantasy sleeper?

Makes sense if they want him to be shooting everything that Huberdeau hits him with.

Funny enough, before seeing this I was going to note that Mantha was shooting the puck today. Very noticeable, he scored a few, he has a pretty good release

Parekh also is pretty good at placing shots right inside the post

Parekh has a great point shot. He is really good at getting them through the pile.

Conroy mentioned on Barn Burner that Mantha had other options but wanted to come to Calgary. They probably sold him on the opportunity to pad his stats to help reset his market value next season. I look forward to seeing him get a lot of rope.

12.6% shooter over his career. They want 38 goals out of him I guess.

It seems suspicious that the captain is always the one in the best shape. Like there is literally no one else all these years that worked out harder than the guy wearing the "C"?

Inside the posts is where the puck is supposed to go! This is good news

Awesome about Backs . Leading the charge again with Lombo nipping at his heels. It's great having guys like Coleman, Lomberghini bringing the kids some this is what a cup winner does to the team and being vocal about it too .

We have some great leadership here . Having Conny, Gelinas and Iginla around sure doesn't hurt either . Bright spots of hope for our team .

Back in LOVE with our Flames organization. Especially after seeing the outpouring of love for #13 and his brother.

Maybe just maybe the Flames like picking the team first guys who work their ass off. Very surprising
