There is so much to be excited about with this heat team.

[Drury18]

According to Heat PBP, 3 Stars were submitted just after the 10 minute mark of the 3rd. Lots changed in the game after that. Granlund and Hanowski honorable mention for 3 stars.

[Roof-Daddy]

Ferland with an assist tonight, he now has 5 goals, 10 assists, 15 points in his last 11 games.

He also has at least a point in 9 of those 11 games.

Great to see Granlund, Ferland and Street playing so well lately, wouldn't mind having Sven sent down to build confidence and put on a line with Granlund and Ferland, and bring the whole line up after the trade deadline assuming the Flames move a few veterans.

[thymebalm]

Chad "Assist" Billins has 16 assists in his last 13 games.

Awesome to see Lamb, Wotherspoon, and Cundari back for the Heat.

Granlund continues to respond to more icetime with more points.

And how about Ben Street! AHL player of the month starts off december with a 2 point outing.

Ortio is 10W-1L with a .935% tonight. season sv is .923%

The good numbers just keep piling up.

Nice to see a bounce back after a false start against a lowly club last weekend.

Highlights:

[Francis's Hairpiece]

Nice to see Rhino still playing well after the demotion.

[Jake]

So many players on the Heat right now that I'd like to see get call ups this year...

[PeteMoss]

Nice to see Ward putting Granlund back out there after giveaway that lead to the shorthanded goal and he responded with a goal and an assist on the last two Heat goals. Granlund is racking up the points of late.

Street should probably be up with the Flames in the 4th line centre role.. but the Flames actually have too many NHL caliber centres right now.

This is the first year where the farm team seems like the better place for our prospects, even Baertschi and Berra perhaps.

Everything I've read makes it sound like the team atmosphere around the Heat is second to none.

I'd like them to stick together. The chances of playoffs and success are way higher for the Heat than the Flames this season.

According to the AHL transactions page, the Heat have released Sivak from his PTO (back to Alaska) and have signed and called up centre Brendan Connolly.
