The return of Hathaway.

I always enjoy the return of players like Hathaway. You get to see if he didn't like any of his old teammates.

Czarnik in top 6 = barf. We really need another top 6 forward.

Yeah, if you change the rotation to play Rittich again after a great game - do the same for Talbot. He was outstanding against Anaheim.

#Flames have recalled Oliver Kylington from AHL Stockton. Alan Quine has been sent back down.

Czarnik in the top 6. Wonder when we get to hear from Froliks agent.

Looks like Andrew Mangiapane good to go. He’s on the ice for morning skate after missing the last two games. #Flames

Why not? He played great on Sunday and generated the GWG.

He did. I'm a Czarnik critic, but he's always been able to perform well in small doses. Keep a short leash on him and see if he can keep it up from last game. If he gets lazy or chicken, switch him with Mangiapane or Frolik. Mangiapane looked good before his injury and Frolik often responds well after a demotion/benching.

That third line is interesting.

Exactly. I have also been critical of Czarnik, and was totally ready to waive him at the beginning of the season. But he has played a few really good games in a row now, culminating in Sunday night's performance, which may have been the best of his career.

Kylington won't be in Calgary in time for game?

I'm guessing his agent knows the Flames have tried to move him and are having difficulty.

Getting involved now only makes it less likely he gets moved.

Mangiapane-Ryan-Rieder
Lucic-Jankowski-Frolik

I don't like these lines. Should be:
Lucic - Ryan - Frolik
Mangiapene -Jankowski - Reider

Ryan is smart player that can play circle in o zone with Frolik and Lucic and can feed them the puck to shoot. They were good last game.
And 2 fast guys can help Jankowski play a little bit faster.
Man, Jankowski needs to find his role fast. He is not playing fast and skilled game to play top six and not playing fast, hard working defensive game for bottom six.
