I'm not sure I agree the team has major issues in the bottom six...every team has these types of players. Priority for me would be adding a top six forward and a dman.

Hertl/Chychrun will do!

Love the idea! Can you mock-up a potential trade for both?

Only for after we make 10M magically disappear.

I still think Monahan has some usefulness, but I think dealing him 2 offseasons ago after the bubble round exit would've been ideal.

Maybe we can boost his stock with some 2nd line playing time. We need to deal a big contract to go after any meaningful rentals.

Monahan, Valimaki, and a 1st for Chychrun

And a Sutter-autographed Kipper hat for Hertl.

He's actually 10th in powerplay ice time and averaging 1:00 per game.

But only started recently.

Vast majority of production is at even strength.

It’s also a function of being on the second unit, which is far less productive, having only Mangiapane as a real offensive player.

We really need another weapon.

It's the best option the other team has on beating Sutter's checking style and especially Flames D who are aggressive in closing the gaps.

Flames need to be aware of other teams F1 and F2 flying the zone as soon as their D has the puck.

Also, seems all the tip shots by Flames ended hitting Bob!

One of those nights ...

What I saw was when the Panthers started skating and putting on the pressure the Flames started throwing the puck away. At one point Oliver Kylington carelessly tried the clear the puck out rather than carry it or play a safe pass, but the Panthers intercepted the puck and it ended up in the net. Usually, the Flames hold on to the pucks, carry them out, and pass with more patience, but after the 2nd period, the passes were sloppy too far ahead or behind allowing the Panthers to recover the loose pucks. This led to Panthers using their speed and a few sustained drives.

Thought the Flames started strong but got away from their game. Goaltending could have been better,

He's actually been on that second unit since his 2nd game of the season.

Being the second unit though that has some games with next to zero PP time, but he's been one of the ten guys all season.
