GDT: Oct. 19 Heat vs. Wolves 8:00 MT

[Freeway]

I have it on good authority that Roman Horak worked his ass off over the summer to be ready for the season.

It's showing.

[Ashasx]

Well, the Heat have nobody to compare to Lack.

[HighLifeMan]

Taylor looked very sketchy in that shootout. Can't really blame him as the forwards did not get the job done either.

Oh well, excited for tomorrow night.

[Samiz]

Gahhh I hate Kassian

[Jayems]

Perhaps trying the pokecheck 5 minutes early was a bad way to start the shootout, let alone try it again with the next shooter.

Exciting game nonetheless.

[Ashasx]

Disappointing result, but after an uneventful first 2 periods, the 3rd period was very entertaining. Much more efficient hockey by the Heat.

My Heat 3 Stars:
1. Horak
2. Taylor
3. Baertschi

Can't win them all. Hopefully the end result will be better tomorrow night in HD.

Toms game will be on tv!

[Samiz]

First Star: Horak
Second Star: Walter
Third Star: Kassian

[Freeway]

2-0-0-1 is pretty good.

Horak and Baertschi are amazing.

[HighLifeMan]

The three stand outs for me were undoubtedly Horak, Baertschi and Brodie. They are clearly ready to become everyday NHL players at this point.

For the Canucks, Kassian and Lack were by far the best Wolves on this night. Schroeder simply does not impress me in the slightest, he seems far to selfish with the puck.

[Short Shift]

Heat need to play for all 60 minutes tomorrow.

[Ashasx]

I don't think the 6 days off helped the Heat much out of the gate. I think they got some early chances in the first 5 minutes, but from that point until the start of the third, really nothing much was generated by the Heat. Few offensive chances, if any. Taylor really kept this game close for the team.

Who plays tomorrow? Brust?

[JurassicTunga12]

Ahh,

Hope we beat the Wolves down tomorrow. Going to be on TV I believe.

Horak is downright amazing these last couple of weeks. He's such an underrated prospect in the Flames system.

Here's what pissed me off most tonight: Waiting nearly half an hour for the reporters to finish interviewing the Wolves players so we could get on with the Heat post-game interviews. A little annoying.

Not only that, but hearing Taylor chants, fans booing the Heat shootout guys, and all their jerking off over Kassian. It's enough to make me sick. I know I'm supposed to be media now, but I officially hate covering Heat vs. Wolves games. Worst experience.

[Pierre "Monster" McGuire]

Some other things:

- The Heat went 2-4 on the PP tonight, that's 5-13 now on the season. 38% is pretty damn good.
- I wish Kassian wasn't a Canuck because I love the way that guy plays.
- Aliu was good tonight I thought. He has some surprising speed.
- Ward said after the game that Bouma won't be playing tomorrow. Could that mean Eddy or Ferland will play their first games of the season tomorrow?

Because he was bad or hurt?

Sorry, never got to see/hear the game tonight.

I can support watching the AHL over the NHL players in KHL anytime.
