Team looks good for preseason. Don't see much to complain about but game threads are going to game thread.

Flames missing their top line dominate an NHL roster all period

Let's complain

Some of you really need to look at some rosters around the league

Big edge on the face-off dot. Something Sutter really stresses.

They are more of a 2B line, if you will.

I don't think anyone is complaining just stating the obvious that Rooney is a 4th liner who needs 4th line minutes.

It looks like this was the list of 12 remaining visorless players last season:
  1. Jamie Benn
  2. Jordie Benn
  3. Zach Bogosian
  4. Brian Boyle
  5. Zdeno Chara
  6. Ryan Getzlaf
  7. Zack Kassian
  8. Milan Lucic
  9. Matt Martin
  10. Ryan O’Reilly
  11. Ryan Reaves
  12. Joe Thornton


My money would be on O’Reilly eventually being the last one standing.

I would also like to point out that this team seems to focus heavily on defence and not pushing for 7 goals. Very sutter like.. I like

Yes it does. We should be building lines for the season only 2 games left so yes it matters.

There was some talk that he was awful (he's not) and that Backlund and Coleman didn't score enough to be 3rd liners which is ridiculous. Both have been 20 goal scorers multiple times. They are two of the best third liners in the league.

First world problems I guess

Team is ridiculously deep in this league, like top 5 at least all around
