Ruzicka is playing in Huberdeaus spot so they can let the chemistry grow on the other normal lines. Which is absolutely necessary it seems. Ruzicka won't get a better chance than this.

I think the Flames have played well the last 3 games even if the scoring has dried up. I think they’ll thrash the Jets.

I think WPG is another team Markstrom struggles against, hopefully today will prove to be the exception and not the rule. Just win this one.

People think the Oilers are his kryptonite but it's actually the Jets.

Crazy stretch for that.
Its pretty much our only hope because when they do give up shots they tend to go straight in.

Putting Ruzicka on the top line wasn't as crazy as it sounded, BTW, it was simply an example of slotting the replacement into the vacant spot, in order to keep the other lines intact.

Also, Ruzicka had his best game as a Flame BY A MILE, so criticizing Sutter for the strategy seems a tad misplaced

He's got talent but his case of Jankowski-itis is still lingering and he needs to up his intensity.

I really wish vladar was starting. Loved his effort versus the bruins.

Hopefully markstrom has a strong game, and no weak goals.

With the slump and injuries the team is going thru, something has to pull the rope harder to get them thru. Goaltending, opportunistic scoring, special teams, something.

I actually think tonight will be tough. Won't be able to watch but go flames go!

First, we have Rick Ball's return and now Jim Treliving is shouting the boys out on Twitter. Big guns are out!

I would put him on the 3rd with Backlund and Coleman personally, great spot for a rookie
