Monahan and Brodie sitting will mean that the Flames will have zero players playing all 82 games.

When the schedule came out the first thing I looked at was the afternoon games so I could plan to watch a game like a normal evening game in Calgay. I remember seeing the Jets game as last game of the year and being a little disappointed because I figured it would be a meaningless game. I was right that it would be *pretty much* meaningless but for the wrong reasons.

Go Flames Go

In a very random flames rep I took my one and a half year old son to a priemiership rugby game this afternoon (Harlequins v Glouster) and he got put up on the jumbotron with his flames hat on!

Wes Gilbertson @SUNGilbertson
Based on line rushes, #Flames LW Johnny Gaudreau is just here as an extra body.

No Johnny???

All other regular important guys should sit, which is what I think will happen anyway.

Calder I sort of understand. But in general, milestones are for non playoff teams.

No Ladd, Little, Wheeler, Myers, or Trouba for #NHLJets warmup. Copp, Ellerby, Peluso, Galiardi, among those who are on the ice.

It's not weak if they end up chasing a iron man streak 5 years from now.

Thats the Joke.

Every time Shore has been in the line up Sportsnet has Setoguchi was playing. This is the first time they displayed shore as 22.

No, even then it's pretty weak.

Fan 960 saying Gaudreau might not play despite taking warm up.

Poirier might draw in.

[sureLoss]

Yeah the furthest thing from Hartley's mind is Monahan breaking an iron man streak 7 years from now.

I think Poirier has to play since he is an emergency callup

[dammage79]

Cool, even the PHI PBP crew giving the Flames recognition for their efforts.

Poirier HAS to play as an emergency call up if I am not mistaken. Surprised Gaudreau is the one out but it's all good in the hood. WE get Bennett!

Yeah otherwise he's automatically sent back IIRC.

Seriously, why isn't the Flames pregame on Shaw 302?! I hate SN with the heat of 1000 fiery suns.

[HelloHockeyFans]

Super excited to watch Bennett play today. Kid has serious jam, maybe he can force Hartley's hand?

[jg13]

I'd play Gaudreau, he probably wants to play.

Stone gets an EN point and they're tied for rookie scoring which is a nice cash bonus.
