Sounded like basically the full teams going with maybe a couple regulars sitting.

Expecting more ugly hockey and whoever has the better top guys in this one wins.

This is shaping up to be another hilariously "Canuck" season. They will have tuned out Tocchet in three months or so and the tank threads will be out in full force. Book it.

Both teams iced a 'B' squad in their last games, so I'm expecting close to an opening night roster from both teams tonight..

Will be good to see both these squads going at it, will also be good to get this pre season out of the way..Bring on the real thing.

The McWard experiment looks like its over...Tyler Myers back in the top 4.

I prefer Honek leading the 2nd pairing, but what can you do ?

Also, ..who has Hogs won a job over..?..Ideally, he's not a bottom 6 player.

I would rather have Brisebois on the team over McWard. I do not see what Tocchet sees. Perhaps they're just getting all of the waiver guys through while other teams are doing the same.

Looking like Matt Coronato is going to make the roster..He's had a strong pre season...Flames still have a potent roster.

True,..I think that they're better than they were last season (they were a 111 point team the season before last).

I hope they falter, but there's a still good number of quality players on their roster.
I think they lost a few key players from that 111-point season and their replacements have zero chemistry with anybody on the team.

Very weird lineup, they've completely broken up the Mang-Back-Coleman line which was a very effective line. I can understand moving Mangiapane up, but splitting up Coleman and Backlund seems weird.
