Would love to see Ferland feeding shots to Kassian's face.

It feels nice to have a goalie who thus far is bailing the team out. Was hoping that this might have been the year the Flames played well to start the season.

It can turn around with a few good shifts, but they haven't done much for the last 18-20 minutes.

Of the young core it feels like only Bennett and Tkachuk have the heart for these games. Need a lot more from Gaudreau, Mony and Dougie.

If they get the zone by carrying it in these guys will make noise. The problem is dumping it.

So far largely anecdotal, but my theory across the league that teams with an injection of rookies do better in the first 5-10 games.
