Mackey is the future. Zadorov is not a smart hockey player. He had a good run, but I'm very happy to move on from him ASAP.

We are talking about the playoffs that start in less than a month...Zadorov will be playing and should be playing.

Not likely a coincidence they are in town to see him get point 100 tomorrow and to join him on his signing of a 7 year $64M contract.

What a shame they're here for this week that we dip below zero as winter gives us a final licking. Jesus mother nature, can't you just behave for the Gaudreaus?

Right now though? Some talk in the last few posts that involve making some fairly significant lineup changes at game 72 of the season are mind boggling. Sure, try Kylington if you want at forward next year in training camp (I still prefer him way more on D) but right now, a month before playoffs?! And talks about changing the bottom pairing on D now after 1 game from Mackey after they've helped establish a new identity for the Flames through the first time 72 games?

According to Evolving Hockey's GAR Kylington has been a top 30 dman in the NHL this year.

The idea that we should be moving him to wing because Stone/Mackey have had a couple okay games is ridiculous.

Seriously. I'm bewildered that there is even a whisper of this narrative on this forum or, especially, on local sports talk radio in Calgary.

I would love for it to be something, but I think I recall during the Flames swing through Jersey last time, that the Gaudreau family mentioned they were planning a trip to Calgary around Easter.

I think people are setting themselves up for disappointment when they realize this is just family coming down for an Easter week/weekend family gathering.

Just give him 8X$13 and be done with it.
