I was so pumped on both of those guys when they first made the team. They don't seem to skating and look lost now. Maybe not fast enough for the flames new style of play? Time to bring up Coronato?

Yup, I’d send Duehr down and give Coronato another look.

Not trying to be a downer, but we need those two teams to start playing some of those games in hand. It's kind of ridiculous that the entire division is sitting at 45 or 44 games played, except LAK (41) and ENG (40).
I find it easier looking at games above .500
LAK, EDM +9
CGY +3

So we're essentially 6 points back (need to win 3 and for both LAK, EDM to lose 3).

Nice comeback win. Great hustle by Yegor to get to that puck than walk in a rip that home. Coleman what can you say about him, ultimately professional and he's white hot. Vladar really is an oddity. Makes the extremely difficult saves, but gives up that one bad goal every game it seems. Made some key saves in this one.

I thought Duehr was quite fast last season, for some reason, this season, he seems lost.

Just need that last wildcard spot. Then we can bounce either Winnipeg or Vancouver in the 1st round.

LA has 1 win in 10 games

trends are trends

Also, neither of those teams are in the final playoff spot anyway

Nashville 1 game in hand 2 points up

I think Dube, Duehr and Ruzicka need to replaced with more useful players.

This is a by committee offense, so we need less dead weight down the line up.

Hopefully Pelletier and Coronato are coming along.

I think Klapka is a better replacement for Duehr. Or Dryden Hunt.

If you want to replace Ruzicka, then Coronato is your man.

Flames are chasing the Preds here, not the Oilers/Kings. Why is that even a conversation?

Let's catch Nashville first, then worry about bigger aspirations (besides, they would need help to close that gap).

we all got what you were trying to say

again LA has 1 win in 10 games

Flames have made up a ridiculous amount of ground

Nashville is 2 points up with 1 game in hand...you skipped them

The claim was that we're 3 pts back of 3rd in the division. Nothing to do with a WC spot.

I pointed out that the Flames made up about 15 points on LA in the last 2 months but that was too positive for a PGT after a big win apparently.

I also said the Oilers are due for some losses...they are
