Guys, relax. Its just training camp and we can infer that these definitely are not the final lines because Ritchie is not yet in the top six.
25 for Monahan, 15 for Gaurdreau?Gaudreau- Monahan you say? 40 goals incoming.
Something something sutter will learn his lesson ofc ofc.

Huselius, Langkow and Iginla still GOAT'dIf I learned anything from last year it's that Gaudreau - Monahan - Ritchie is probably the best trio in the history of the league.
What better way to develop a young defenceman than to have him baby sit maybe your 8th/9th best option

The best ting for d-men like him and Gudbranson is to not be noticeable because they're likely getting beat or making a bad giveaway if they're being noticed.I hope Zadorov just takes a page out of Tanev’s book. He’s got the size and skating to be a dominant force in a Sutter system. They don’t need to do anything fancy; just !”need them to dominate defensively.
It will get to that point…I can already see it: Valimaki and Gudbranson bleed GA and Sutter parks Valimaki in the press box because he “still hasn’t learned how to play the right way and be a professional”, yet Gudbranson still plays despite everyone knowing he’s been a horrible NHL’er for the past 5+ yearsNah man you gotta health scratch him left and right too so he “lEaRnS tO pLaY tHe rIgHt wAy” and “iSnT eNtItLeD.”
Eric Francis? Overreacting?
Shut up, it's his job.
Here's a take from a less sensationalist reporter.
I think it's more 12 d chess, piss off Gaudreau then convince ownership only he can salvage the situation become GM play Gaudreau with Tkachuk and Lindholm and re-sign him.Sutter just playing 10th dimensional chess here. Ice a terrible lineup, pissing off Gaudreau enough so that he refuses to re-sign thereby forcing the Flames into a rebuild. Sheer genius.
It’s trueThis is a major problem and it is true. Monahan needs to be carried like a baby.
