Has this been posted anywhere?
Blocked a shot didn't he? Wonder if that gave him a hairline fracture.

According to the shift chart he played out the game, so I'm wondering if maybe it's a shoulder or hand.

If the point is to score goals...ok let’s start with scoring 1 goal, I don’t see how a Backlund/Monahan swap only does anything to make that more probable.

Weve seen Johnny and Monahan together for awhile not scoring goals and looking horrible.

Time for something new.

With some of the stuff Benny gets called for and the apparent hatred the refs have for him. I would not be surprised if Bennet did somehow come away from tonight's game with a penalty despite not playing.

I just realized that this is the longest GDT in weeks.

Finally Backlund gets to play with Johnny. This has been a long time coming. Will be nice to see what Johnny can do with a center that can carry the puck through the neutral zone, make zone entries and hold onto the puck to make a play.

I cant believe some of you in here. Already blasting this line when we havent even seen it in action yet. #### isn't working, this is long overdue.

I have a feeling this line will go up against MacKinnon and win that battle. We shall see. I'm excited about the change.


Alright I'll bite. Backlund is my Favourite so don't get it twisted, I want this to succeed. I would just rather see Lindholm in that place.

God bless all of you that will be watching, god knows I can’t stomach watching our team get bulldozed by Mack again. Maybe they will play with some guts tonight?

Well, the bar is pretty low.

The expectations manage to just limbo under that bar in the GDT here.

So the Flames win?

..or at least...score one goal? (Is that a win?)

You know it's bad when they show a highlight of the last goal they scored, last week.
