No one cares about GF if you are trading it for suppression of GA.

Combined Wolf/Vladar have been mid
Wolf is like 8th-10th and Vladar near the bottom (obviously not today) some of you act like the Flames have vintage Hasek. Sorry about the narrative...Flames are mid league for stolen games.

Is it because of his ability or the fact the flames goalies have to play lights out to stay in a game.

It would be called a lower body injury but he’s hurting.

Guess the refs have put away the whistles this period.

I like Rasmus but his play has fallen off badly. He is a marginal 2nd pair dman the way he’s playing. I am guessing that hasn’t helped his value much.

I feel like this is a repeat of last game. Hopefully not the same score.

Yeah, where are these goals coming from? Huberdeau, who has struggled to score at his Florida rate since leaving there? Sharangovich, who had a heater last year? Coleman and Kadri, on the downside of their careers?
Sharks have much better youngsters like Celebrini and Smith and Eklund who are all contributing pretty well if not great, and a proven scorer in Toffoli, and they had a rebounding Granlund before they traded him.
What makes anyone think the Flames were supposed to outscore them handily this season?

Vladar has an .891
Team save % is .899
Slightly above mid...certainly not historic

He’s playing not to get hurt most nights. He had a nice audition in Washington the other night.

Yeah, and we know Vladar typically gets the 2nd of a back-to-back as well, as well gets the tougher starts. At least during the first half of the season.
Is tomorrow Wolf's first start in a back-to-back? I wonder which flames team will show up then.

Trade for Andrew Cristall? I know the kid’s family. And they are close with Iggy.

I understand, shaking up the lines to try to get a spark. But I think it’s a mistake to separate Huberdeau and Kadri.

You know Florida plays a really well structured game, right?

As a fan of the caps as my eastern team, I’d love that. Reunited with his best friend Mangiapane. They’ve also got an insanely good pipeline of prospects, and could easily fall off in a year or 2 if we can grab a 1st from them

Bring up Zayne Parekh. We need some offensive elite talent badly.
