Default Practice Mar 23: Versteeg done for the season. Monahan shutdown & needs surgery.

Pat Steinberg @Fan960Steinberg
Calgary is without Monahan, Tkachuk, Versteeg, and Brodie again at practice this morning. #Flames

Pat Steinberg @Fan960Steinberg
#Flames today:

Gaudreau-Bennett-Lazar

Pat Steinberg @Fan960Steinberg
Per Gulutzan, Monahan has been playing through two “significant injuries”. He’ll see medical staff later today to determine his playing status for the rest of the year. #Flames

I would still like to see Kulak-Hamonic get at least a game in.

The thing with Brouwer on the PP is that he actually has a history of being pretty effective on the PP before coming to Calgary.

The problem has actually been that in the past he's been more effective in that triggerman role that Monahan occupies on the first unit.

The biggest fail was that the coaching staff seemingly had no idea of the role he was effective in on the PP in the past and kept trying to put him on the half wall on the first unit, when he probably should have been the trigger man on the second unit that actually lacks a pure shooter.

Yes, please risk further injury to one of our top players by having him play (and be ineffective) in a bunch of meaningless games at the end of the year.

Shut the guy down. Not rocket surgery...

That might be it for Versteeg's career let alone his time as a Flame.

He's been dealing with a lot of wrist/hip & back injuries. Hopefully they can get him fixed up so he doesn't have to deal with being broken down come Feb/March.

Sounds like they are tossing in the towel


Would not surprise me to see Smith,Brodie and Chucky being shutdown in the next couple days.

With the way the Flames' season has gone, Brouwer will probably suffer a freak injury preventing his buyout. There is no reason he should be playing another game for the Flames, and certainly not on the freaking powerplay.
