Matthew Tkachuk is also a successful example for this team.

It's crazy that we added depth and we are still potentially graduating two rookies. And Bennett and Jankowski are all that are left from last year's horrendous bottom 6

I feel the guys pain as all I ever see is a Twitter link.

I see the tweets on my phone and desktop computer whenever I use that however.

#Flames rookie Dillon Dube on Monday's news he has cracked opening roster: "I don’t think I can get caught up in it too much …. A long part of the start of the season is going to be a tryout for me still and I want to really earn my spot to be an NHLer, night-in and night-out."

The only thing surprising about this is that the organization actually made spots for them.

Do all of you think Valimaki clearly outplayed Andersson I'm the prest season games?

Since I deleted the Twitter app from my phone, the tweets don't show up on my android either, and the links always display a dead page.

Maybe should embed and quote in text when posting OP tweets.

Not really tbh, I'm pretty sure if it was a spot on the right side ufg that it'd be Andersson penciled in for the top 6 instead of Valimaki. I was still reasonably happy with Juuso's play though

Great outlook on how he needs to be.

Close but Valimaki is the better skater, his ability to jump into the play and get back quickly sets him apart. that said, both should see lots of play this season.

Download Chrome for iOS. Then they will show up.

It's Safari that hates Twitter links.

Yeah, pretty easily in my mind. Valimaki got better every game and Andersson seemed to get worse as the quality of the opposition got better/faster.

Andersson can't skate, looked bad against every forecheck he faved in preseason

It came down to Valimaki being a better left side defenseman than Andersson IMO.
