GDT: Flames vs Sharks 8:30 MT

[OvermanKingGainer]

Hanifin and Andersson for Karlsson?

25 year old and 26 year old top four D with 50 pt potential go to rebuilding team

32 year old #1D with 100 pt potential goes to all-in team with the perfect partner for him

Do you think we'd need to add?

Nah but I don't want to get screwed up by giving the Sharks an entire top 4 pairing and be hurt by it in the near future. If by some hypothetical scenario we do trade both, I'd rather we target Fox (Who should honestly be on this team)

 

[Yepthatsme]

Mangiapane - Backlund - Coleman is gonna be our best line going forward. It's nice to see the two third lines pitching in tonight against a bad team

You couldn’t even keep it in over a joke post, eh?

Lindholm -28 points in last 26 games
Dube -15 in 16
Toffoli -13 in 13

Huberdeau -17 in 20
Kadri -11 in 10
Lucic -3 in 2…. (Until replaced)

Best third lines in the league.

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

Looch goal and assist +4 on the night. Nothing makes sense

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

The good news is we have an opponent even worse than the Sharks coming up lmao.

 

[Mobiandi]

Huberdeau got a third of his even strength points tally tonight. Top 6 Looch is gonna be there for a while

Huberdeau/Kadri with Mangiapane: 0 goals, 2 allowed, 50% Corsi, 41 xGF%

Huberdeau/Kadri with Lucic: 3 goals, 0 allowed, 62% Corsi, 59 xGF%

Lucic isn’t a long term solution with those two, but he really proved that Mangiapane really doesn’t deserve it. Hopefully Ruzicka/Phillips get a chance but ride that line until it’s stops working at this point.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Going to need @super6646 to shit on Weegar next gdt so he can score a goal lol


Thought the Flames played pretty well. Man do they ever hate doing things the easy way though, not a game that should have been tied in the 3rd. Shorks doing us a solid by shitting their pants the last 12 minutes

S TIER : Milan "Looch" Lucic, what a god

Really good : Thought Toffoli was excellent, smart plays, moving his feet, even looked dare I say fast on a cpl occasions. Dube also another good top 6 performance from him. Kadri had his best game in a while.

Good : Markstrom didn't have a ton of work but came up with some big saves when needed. Not sure you can put any of those GA on him. So was Coleman - Backlund - Mangiapane, those 3 reunited looked good together, had a 91xGF%. Mangiapane simply does not play well on the RW, should be kept on the left. Weegar not quite as good as last game but probably our best dman.

Not bad : Huberdeau still unsure what to make of this player. Made some good plays, made several headscratchers. Ruzicka was much better than last game. Made several solid defensive plays.

Meh : 4th line got pinned several shifts, guess that shouldn't be super surprising on the road. Lewis scored so that was cool. Ritchie killed a guy. Whatever. Hanifin-Andersson I really didn't think were very good despite having a + night. Tanev struggled with moving the puck but was good off of it.

Not good : Zadorov and Stone gave up way too many chances. Zads I can forgive as he looked hurt. Stone should come out for DeSimone next game.

Sutter is a f***ing genius

 

[DingerMcSlapshot]

Good job Flames. Be sweet if Looch can keep it up and help push the Oilers out off the playoffs.

32 year old #1D with 100 pt potential goes to all-in team with the perfect partner for him

Did you not watch the last two games? Karlsson was f***ing horrendous. Like honestly the worst D performance I can remember

 

[Tofveve]

I was getting annoyed when it was 3-3, but we came through. Glad to snatch those 4 pts @ the tank.

We turned that snatch into a good lickin

Looch goal and assist +4 on the night. Nothing makes sense

Sutter is a total Yoda.

 

[BRobMint]

The team definitely needed these two games. I know the California teams suck with the exception of LA, but they might as well get the easier points and build off of them for when they start playing the tougher teams

 

[Felidae]

Another game I miss, Another win. On a 3 point night by Huberdeau no less.

Looks like I'm gonna have to miss games until they lose..

 

[Haatley]

Great game. Lines looked great. Markstrom was solid.

 

[Kahvi]

I managed to watch first 10 minutes and the third period, basically 6-1 win for Flames. They should get at least 4 points from the next 2 games if they want to get to playoffs

I mean... you can't get MORE than 4 points in the next two games. So you are suggesting our playoff hopes are going to be decided in these 2 games? If we only get 3 points, we're out?

Haha, meant next 3 games. Anaheim should be 2 points if the team plays like this, and a win againts either LA or Edmonton is a must. It's not over but you need to take all those "easy" points, and win as many as you can againts division rivals that are fighting for playoff spot.

edit: add to that the following two games against Seattle and Vancouver, 2 points is the absolute minimum from those games.

 

[Nanuuk]

I thought the 1 line continued with the instant chemistry they found 7 games ago.

I thought playing Huberdeau with two left shots to be another good move and it seems like with the addition of the Loochinator, thye've found some instant chemistry. Both Huby and Kadri seemed to play bigger and with swagger.

I thought the reunited MBC line continue where they left off last season. One tough mother of a line to play against.

I thought the 4 line could be better. Ritchie was the weak link. That could be from sitting and not getting in to a series of games. Or it could be he is just the weak link. I couldn't help but think, wee Matty would work playing next to Rosie.

I like Stone as a 6th/7th dman, but he does need a few games off to refocus. A few too many unforced errors

Poster has never let reality get in the way of a good story.

 

[Kranix]

100 pt potential

32 year old #1D with 100 pt potential

 

[Fig]

Looch goal and assist +4 on the night. Nothing makes sense

His first name has too many letters in it. It should be shortened from Milan, to simply, Man.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Not sure about that. It could mean an increase in "Too Much Man" penalties. Gary Roberts had this issue.
