Let's win this one!!!

 

[FlamerForLife]

Jagr confirmed out tonight, lazar takes his place on the Bennett-versteeg line

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Jagr confirmed out tonight, lazar takes his place on the Bennett-versteeg line

Hamilton deserves that opportunity there ahead of Lazar. That line needs a shot generator on that wing and Lazar is anything but.

[Johnny Hoxville]

I’m hoping Lazar has a good outing. If not, let’s get Janko up here.

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

Bartkowski still in lineup?

 

[Tofveve]

I’m hoping Lazar has a good outing. If not, let’s get Janko up here.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Should be a good one! Thanks for the Avatars MM.

 

[Yarborough]

Dang it, no Jagr.

[Baxterman]

Sucks that Jagr won't get in tonight but good to see Lazar get the call over Hamilton. He should be a very good fit there.

 

[Anglesmith]

I mean, Lazar is at the very least a high motor player, which is going to make things better for Bennett.

 

[MDCSL]

Lazar's going to have a good game tonight, I can feel it.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Lazar is better then Brouwer that's for sure. We traded a second for him, gotta see what he's got at this point.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Lazar in over Jagr.

 

[GuitarGuy]

This will be Lazar's time to shine and make the coaching staff notice him. I hope he'll have a good game.

 

[FerklundCGY]

What are the Flames thinking?! It's like they're actually trying to give Bennett a chance to succeed. Weird.

Interested to see what Lazar brings tonight. Obviously only gonna get a game or 2 with Versteeg-Bennett before Jagr comes in but we haven't really had much of a chance to see what we got in him.

Wasn't the biggest fan of the trade when it happened but considering his rookie season was actually decently good, I wonder if he can at the very least get back to that form. Not expecting a ton from him so hopefully he'll surprise.

Anything it takes to get Brouwer a mile away from Bennett though

 

[Mobiandi]

Need to stay out of the box to prevent Laine from burning us. Otherwise I'm confident we can shut him down with the 3M line

 

[FerklundCGY]

Need to stay out of the box to prevent Laine from burning us. Otherwise I'm confident we can shut him down with the 3M line

I'm pretty sure that the 3M line will mostly be matched up against the Ehlers-Scheifele-Wheeler line all night, which means Laine will get some favorable matchups. A wee bit nervous

 

[Calculon]

Laine gets at least one hat trick

 

[hangman005]

Hopefully we show up this game, I don't want a repeat of the Oilers game.

 

[GAMO1992]

Go Flams.
'Peg is gonna be out for it after the trouncing they got from the Leafs. just win.
