Yep, he said it would have happened already if not for a couple "nagging items".

Should see 12-15 cuts tonight/tomorrow most likely.

I think he said this game was the last bubble player game, for the most part and he was going with regular guys the last two.

Unfortunately this is the NHL and so there isn't another player to be found with a spine to make a statement.

I don't have a high expectation for a #6 guy. It's mainly just to not look awful out there and Rasmus is the one I've been least embarrassed by from what I've seen.

That's good enough for me for the #6 role, L/R handed pairs be damned.

None of the prospects I expected to impress are. I think just cut the whole team back to what it was last year. Jankowski looks ready, everyone else needs more time in the oven.

Don't get me wrong, I think it's great he said something, but I've seen that graphic three times tonight and I missed the entire first period. There's only so much to say about it.

Yikes. Kulak on almost all those Jets highlights, and not in a good way.

Bfug sure looked willing to me... I think he maybe even threw the 1st punch. To me instigating is when a guy has no choice or someone drops gloves and goads.

At this point it's not even fair how much better regional coverage on TSN is compared to Sprotsnet and the Flames. This broadcast has been smooth, polished and professional. The Flames organization can't even stream a game online with out a multitude of issues.

Nice steal back by Foo there. I think he'll be a player once he's adjusted to the pro game.

Foo has had a decent game. He made a really smart calm play after that Winnipeg breakaway and Lack sprawling out of his net late in the 2nd. Instead of panicking and just wiring it down the ice wildly he scooped up the loose puck and skated behind the Flames net with it to regroup.

Still should be in Stockton to start and see how he does.

I swear the local amateur tv channel that shows the Jr B hockey games does a better job than Sportsnet and the Flames.

I really don't want to keep beating the dead horse here but he's been ####ing awful and he's playing for a job. He's had plenty of chances over the last few seasons to earn a spot and hasn't. It's time to let Rasmus/Kylington get a chance, but we will roll with Bart and Kulak who have been the Flames worst 2 players this pre-season. Not good whatsoever
