Really liked Kylington tonight. Really would like to see some AHL guys in to give the bottom six some pop.

I might just be recency bias but it sure seems like the team has been way better lately at locking down the win with an empty net goal.

Awesome job Flames.

Now rest some guys up and don't choke in the playoffs. We're overdue for a deep run.

Yeah unless it's just to rest guys


Team won the division in a landslide...they aren't changing the lineup for the playoffs

Good to see them battle it out in a close game against a desperate team. That's the kind of fortitude required to win in the playoffs.

Sutter said if they’re healthy they’ll play.

I’d be worried about people taking games off, rust happens quite easy.

"If you're used to not making the playoffs and losing in the first round you play two goalies"

Sutter to the media (and some fans TBH)

Not really.

He spreads the ice time so well, compared to other coaches.

At the very least, I'd probably give Milan some time off before the playoffs. I really don't think he looks close to 100% right now — whether that's due to fatigue, bumps and bruises, or something else.

I think he was implying to do it to improve the team....and it's only four games.

Players dont play better after two weeks off...Flames will have plenty of rest

I know Darryl Sutter would never say it, but if it were up to me, I would just tell the team that for the next 4 games, do everything to pad JGs stats to try and get him the league lead for points.

Shame it’s so unlikely the Flames play the Stars first round.

Yup if guys are 100% healthy then maybe they just sit out that last double header.

But anybody nursing small injuries should get a couple games rest

That’s a perk that winning the division with 4 games left grants you.

That’s a very close team.

They’re not bring up guys to “boost the bottom 6”.

Fantastic win and well deserved division crown! Hopefully anyone who is banged up can get some rest for the playoffs. Suck it oilers
