[GT] Flames @ Rangers

[btimbit]

Pretty even game imo. Flames capitalized on one of their chances and the Rangers keep missing the net on theres

I'm ok with Bennett getting sheltered minutes. Nothing wrong with him watching and learning and getting some shifts here and there.

Alot of guys didn't see alot of minutes that period.

I know a way to win this game.

Play Bennett in situations he will succeed in, like the power play where Jones should not be playing.

Really if they aren't going to play Sam they should send him down

I wish you would stop being so level headed and rational and exhibit some hysteria and outlandish predictions!

Frolik - Bennett - Jones

I'd love to see that line...but with how Bob is handling Bennett, I doubt we'll see much more of Bennett this season.

We won't get secondary scoring until Bob begins trusting Bennett. A Backlund led line can't generate offense, but they're solid defensively.

I don't understand why they won't listen to you. It's as if you don't really know the full context and are just commenting on the internet.

He sure did. Had good stick postion, drove to the net and caused some trouble in the corners. I noticed him way more then Bennett.


He is a big kid to miss. He's wearing 57.

Negative... Sam needs to be playing and practicing with men. Not teenagers.

Nothing wrong with a few games here and there in the press box to watch and learn from there though. I think it's very underated part of a players development.

[Your Calgary Flames!]

Bob tends to give ice time to his players that are playing the best, I'm not concrned about Bennett. He will play when he earns it and Iam sure he will get there.

Actually i would take out Backlund from PP and put in Frolik.

*sigh*

Jones, who already has 3 goals this season and one of our few guys who can play in front of the net.

OR

Struggling Bennett, who despite getting more time than Jones, has just 1 assist so far.

Sorry, but that's just not right. If you want to argue Bennett over Raymond, I'd listen, but Jones has been bringing it so far this year.


I really, really, really hope this doesn't turn into another Baertschi argument on CP. Bob knows what he's doing. Let him do it.

OH, that's why. Thanks for clearing that up.

It's a freaking fan forum, discussing points like a complete lack of secondary scoring seems to make sense...but no? Okay, thanks chief.

Hopefully we won't have another disappearing act like after being up agaisnt Washington

diversified; shows, movies, toys, videogames, tshirts, posters. Now it's more of an all around media store than a purely music store.

Christ, everyone drooling over the Habs has got boring quicker than all the McDavid drooling. When the Habs are in the Stanley Cup final, then we'll talk.
