I hope Ferland isn't having concussion issues cause that would really suck. Once you've had a few even banging someone into the boards a few times every game can bring on symptoms. It would explain why he isn't playing as physical as he used to as well. Fingers crossed that maybe it's something minor like they say.

Still, I don't think we will see Mangiapane again this year, and I don't think that Mangiapane is the difference maker this team needs right now.
Never bet against high-end skill, and Mangiapane is more skilled than:

Glass
Stajan
Hathaway
Brouwer
Lazar

etc.

I've spent the last few minutes trying to find a reason to rationalize the usage of Glass.

Came up empty.

Only thing I can think of is they wanted another LHS in the lineup without moving Frolik. I guess? Shrug.

Glass playing ahead of Lazar is another shot at a young developing player.

It's also an ass-backwards decision considering where the league is right now. Speed is very important. This is a road game, and we're going to play those 2 bottom lines against a team that has Nate Mackinnon? Danger...Danger...

This decision is illogical.

wtf?

Lazar's playing his best hockey as a Flame. Scratching him is... asinine.

I would have signed and played rusty 40 year old Iginla before ever recalling and playing useless Glass.

Especially that 4th line. That is all kinds of ugly. Better hope it doesn't get caught on the ice with the Mackinnon line. Slow, unskilled - all around bad.
