[GT] The China tour part 2. Flames vs. Bruins

[Split98]

Shows how much Rogers cares about Bennett when they're still putting up his #63 rookie pic as a feature background...

Lazar and Klimchuk not impressing so far..
Dube's in rear view mirror may be closer than they appear

[dammage79]

Bennett and Janko need to be given more. More winger, more ice time, more responsibility. They're getting more responsibility being a PK unit and theyre succeeding in that department. Ryan and Czarnik not as noticeable so far as they were the first game.

Hanifin is showing better today. So impressed with him as a skater. Maybe the best skater on the team.

Add Hathaway to that list as well.

Decent start but Boston turned things on at the end and easily had the edge overall.


Without Backlund and Tkachuk Calgary has lost the advantage they previously had against the Bergeron and Krejci less Bruins.

They have better options than Peluso and Klimchuk and Lazar. Its gonna be a fight for the winger depth. And Dillon Dube has come out swinging.

[kukkudo]

Lazar, Klimchuk, Peluso, and Hathaway are useless. Dube has a good shot making the roster.

At the end of the day, guys like hathaway klimchuck, lazar. These guys dont have the skill required to put the puck in the net. especially the way the new nhl is going. Would like to see mangiapane and dube on the team. Or insert foo in there. Whats alarming is the 3 shots on goal that period. as well as outside of monahans line it felt as if we have little offensive chances and just cycling the puck and shots from the point with no traffic. Wheres the skill?

This period will be better

Bennett and Jankowski created offense. Shorthanded too. That should count.

[CrazyCaper]

Anyone wanna guess how many Chinese knock-off jerseys are in the stands today?

[ComixZone]

Just tuning in now. Watched the highlight of the goal against...Hamonic got walked wide. That was bad.

[dammage79]

James Neal is a little rusty on the puck handling. Coughing it up a fair bit.

[FBI]

good shot Bennett

[Toonage]

Peluso not on a PTO Hrudey. Sorry.

[dammage79]

Not liking the 4th line players a lot. Lazar does some things right then completely just loses whatever advantage he created.

[FBI]

hmm a few bad giveaways by Czarnik today.. Come on boys

[FireGilbert]

The China games logo looks so good on the Flames jersey and then the camera pans out I see the blue flag which ruins everything.

[ST20]

still catching up the live feed on my PVR but I'm pretty impressed with the pace again! More importantly the ice isnt super blue!

That’s why I’m cautious about putting Czarnik as a guaranteed everyday player. He hasn’t established himself an a bonifide NHL player yet. He should be battling for the 12th spot in my opinion.
