Not the kind of grit we need.
Grit does not equal goon.

I do think the Flames played better and with more confidence with a heavyweight like Godard and McGratton in the lineup, I don't think Hordichuk is on the same level as those two though.

I heard this from Gino Reda on That's Hockey yesterday and he was talking about Hordichuk being pointless in 4 games. I'm just sitting there going "Yeah... he was pointless wasn't he?"

I'm not advocating picking up Hordichuk but it is interesting to see the Leafs essentially ice a team of youngsters protected by 3 goons and having success.
I think leaf fans are pretty happy right now with what they have, a young, exciting, tough team.

The Flames need help anywhere. If he's on waivers pick him--
Ew. Hordichuk? Never mind.

Some of his decisions have been head scratchers but I like a coach that's willing to make the hard decisions. It's all too easy at time to rotate the fringe players in and out while neglecting to hold established players accountable for poor play.

In place of who? Whitney was supposed to be a top pairing guy for them.

Smyth is not surprising, he is old and it is a shortened season.
Whitney was supposed to be their best d-man but has been terrible.

I like it and I'm glad he's not just giving them free passes because they are vets. If you're gonna be lazy you're gonna sit.
