[News] Practice Notes Jan 20: Pospisil called up. Hunt sent down. Coleman non-contact

[Toonage]

Therein lies the major problem with Pospisil. He plays a very aggressive, agitating game that tends to set people off and when they try to confront him he turns them away. Doesn't mean the cheapshot is warranted, of course not, but he invites that from people who wouldn't think twice about it.

Dryden Hunt being sent down is the worst thing to happen to the flames all week.

Or would players target him? I don’t know if the secrecy is all about the NHL trying to brush concussions under the rug. I bet Pospisil doesn’t want the opposition to know either.

Yeah given that fresh sportsnet article ('latest concussion') and what we already know about this guy's style, it seems like just rolling the dice every time he gets out there. Love the player but... yikes.

I still believe the timing of Pospisil's return is mainly about the Olympics. I hope he goes and has the time of his life – and I hope he retires before he gets permanently damaged.

Nice to have one of our Yoked Slovaks back! Stoked to see him back in the lineup...a lineup which includes the NHL's highest paid 3rd-line left winger who would probably help the team more by serving me pocket dawgs at intermission.
