GDT: Release the Andersson! Flames vs. Wings 11/9/2017, 7:00 PM MT

Loving this 3rd pairing. Both D are aggressive on the offense. I like it.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Bennett was beasting on the forecheck on his last shift.

 

[Mobiandi]

This Flames team has all the pieces to be a good team; it’s taking a while to get it all together though.

That defence is second to none when healthy and playing well. Elite piece in Johnny. Amazing top line complimentary piece in Mony, excellent second line and a young and high potential third line. A goalie playing above average.

It just needs to click.

Funny how the team has started to look good when our best players are playing (well minus Hamonic).

I'm also sad I missed the Janko goal

Both can also skate and think, it helps.

 

[MonaHan Solo]

Jesus Johnny calm down.

 

[Calculon]

Gaudreau's going to put up 100 points this year

 

[Mitts]

Jesus Johhny looks so good tonight.

He just had it go off his upper legs, nothing to write home about. Still a good start!

We’re really close to having our best team on the ice. Insane how long it takes the coach to not have Bartkowski or Stajan in the lineup.

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

Mike Green has a clause in Mike Green's contract where Mike Green's name must be said entirely as Mike Green.

 

[Calculon]

Yeah, pretty funny how much better the team looks without the dead weight dragging it down.

Probably just a coincidence though.

 

[MonaHan Solo]

Johnny is on full attack mode.

 

[JPeeper]

No Bartkowski means Flames play good hockey.

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Bah. Stupid thing isn't working.

 

[Jags68]

When did Roger skate out on the ice to get Janko's puck?

 

[Tofveve]

I haven't been able to watch, at work. Johnny's looked good?!

 

[Janks]

It’s almost like not getting trapped in our D zone by a dumb play or poor puck management actually leads to successful break outs and attacks. It also helps we can keep the puck in the zone when attacking.

Keep Bart eating popcorn all year please. He’s garbage.

You mean like the first two minutes of the game?

Granted two minutes is much better to a whole period, but lets not pretend this team had a perfect period either.

 

[Volica]

I haven't been able to watch, at work. Johnny's looked good?!

He’s like someone with a 99 player on an old NHL video game. The puck won’t leave his stick and he’s making fools on the ice.

Damn, wish I could be watching this!

 

[JPeeper]

Gaudreau with the new slashing rule, ie. doesn't get whacked 90 times a game = whole new level of good. Can actually use his insane stick handling skills and speed to play hockey.

The game is a lot funner to watch when players can actually use their skill.

 

[Flames Fanatic]

No it hasn't, he deserves all the crap that has been spewed his way. He's awful. There are no positives to Gulutzan's coaching.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Hoping we see a Jankowski mullet by Christmas.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Yeah everyone loves Stajan, but I’m fine with Lazar as our 4C. Also not having Bart play is a good thing. I like the energy we are playing with.

 

[Janks]

You mean like the first two minutes of the game?

Granted two minutes is much better to a whole period, but lets not pretend this team had a perfect period either.

Those 2 minutes also didn’t end up in the back of our net like they would have with Bart on ice.

I’m also not saying we’re playing perfect, but our 3rd pairing doesn’t look like a total disaster like it does when Bart’s on ice. It looks somewhat competent.

 

[JPeeper]

Wow, Andersson actually uses his stick when playing defense?

Bartkowski is in the press box going, "LOL idiot, that's not how you defend, your supposed to cross check a guy endlessly and ignore the puck".
