Flames Jagr's first practice. Hathaway assigned to Stockton.

Today will be his first practice with the team.

Jermaine Franklin posted some video of him testing out his skates before practice:

He put more effort into that than the entire team (minus Smith) gave last night.

Hoping its not just Hathaway going down to make room officially on the roster. He deserves to stay based on last night, but its the easy move to make.

Well barring a trade or injury, the only 2 players that can be sent down today are Hathaway and Tkachuk. The Flames didn't put anyone on waivers.

This is still surreal to me - Jagr is a Flame.


This thought makes it a little easier to deal with last night's debacle.

Good point. Brouwer back to 3LRW, Hamilton in at 4LRW is my guess.

Guy is a legend and just has that presence. Even the ice crew in the background stop what they're doing and perk up like Meerkats to watch him skate around.

Unless someone is injured, there is no other move they can make can they?
They have to be compliant by 3 this afternoon if i am understanding things.

Waiving anyone else would now require waiting til Saturday to clear/get claimed as todays deadline has passed.

So nothing short of a trade that sees more bodies going out than coming back....Hathaway it is.

I hope Hathaway isn't the only one going down as well, but I hope he's one of them. He didn't do much to impress me other than show a bit of effort. Effort alone doesn't win games and that's all I see from Hathaway.

Yeah that'd exactly the situation.

I'm holding onto hope we see a trade to dump a body or 2, but I'm expecting Hathaway goes down.

I've heard a couple times he might not play anytime soon. Can someone comment on why that is? I'd heard he's in great shape/excited to get into the lineup
