Sven has struggled on the right side. I wouldn't want to play him there over Jooris.
And if we're talking on the left side, then Baertschi is competing against Raymond, Gaudreau, Byron, and Bollig/Bouma. Maybe Raymond plays on the right side when needed. Gaudreau has shown better on the PP/top-six role. Byron is a better PK option, and can sit out on occasion. Bouma and Bollig are both better suited to a 4th line energy/mucking role.
Bertschi is the odd man out, for now. IMO.

LW Sven has lost his spot on the team to LW Johnny Hockey.

And that's the reason I'm okay with Sven starting in the minors, too much LW depth, especially with Gaudreau lighting it up. It's a shame Sven can't play both wings.

He struggled last year in Abbotsford on the right side, but I swear I remember watching multiple Winterhawks games where Sven would be streaking up the right side. Maybe it was just on powerplays but I wouldn't say he's unable to play RW just because he struggled with it for about 10 games last year in a year where he was struggling with a lot of parts of his game.
Give him another shot on the right side maybe in Addy, see how he does this year, then decide if he's going to be a pure LW.

With so many left wingers you'd think eventually we'd trade one or two for a right shooting dman or a right winger.

I dont think there's anyone else who loves being a Flame more then Backlund (maybe Gio) but he bleeds Flaming red. Love it.

Agreed. He really should have a permanent A this year.

No free center ice preview on bell xpressvu. See what you're forcing me to do, tsn/rogers? Now I must go be a pirate on the interwebs. I didn't want it to come to this..
Why on earth were only a couple preseason games televised for us? This is a joke.

Last time the game said it was on TSN3 and it was blacked out for me... wouldn't this be the same thing this time around?

Where do you live? If it's Calgary like your location profile suggests, check the Centre Ice channels for the free preview. 350 on Shaw, somewhere between 1100-1114 on Telus.

We are out of luck. No free preview for Telus customers according to the Telus guy I talked to an hour ago.

Telus in BC has informed its customers they are getting the free preview. Get back in touch with Telus and ask why BC would get a free preview when AB wouldn't.
