Even if Jankowski plays tonight how dangerous would a Stewart-Jankowski-Hathaway line even be? Swapping Shore in really doesn't change much, that 3rd line would be questionable regardless.

I'm going to assume you are referring to the current bottom 6 and not our regular group, which would include both Jankowski and Bennett.

I also have no problem with Hathaway as a 4th liner, but I want someone with some skill playing on the 3rd line wing. Hathaway just doesn't have NHL offensive skill.

I think I might just avoid the forum today just so I don't get sucked into it.

Gulutzan’s tantrums typically get some result so a win tonight would be great.
If they lose badly tonight the season is over in my opinion.

I have a feeling this game will either be the nail in the coffin or the springboard to a playoff spot

Why is Hathaway still playing? He's honestly been the worst player on the team, IMO.

Maybe we need him in the lineup tonight in case 80s style Battle of Alberta hockey comes back in style?

It doesn't look great but maybe Shore and Stewart can inject some enthusiasm and jump. They both likely want to go out and show what they can do.

Calgary loves those grinders who don't offer any offensive ability but are just as bad in their own end.

It seems like almost every single Flames team had one.

Poorly, isn't that obvious?

No, I'll be staying far away from the game thread.

I will only pop into the post game thread if we win and win handily.

Janko looks tired. Still getting used to the NHL schedule I think.

I'm sure Stewart will be better than him.
