Flames just recalled Anthony Peluso.
getting into the heads of another team feels great
Where’s Sestito when we need him.1 game in and calgary is abandoning an entire game-plan for revenge against a bottom feeder.
It really is sad and kind of embarrassing.
Calgarys D..even though its superior to the Canucks,has Stone and Prout in their lineup tonight..two players who could also be turnstiled by speed.I'll be looking for the pivoting of Edler, Guddy, Pouliot.
Will they be easily beat with speed coming down the wings once they pass the blue line
How much hooking and slashing will there be because they got beat and are behind a step
I'm hoping our rookie doesn't become a target (you know - him) in a tit for tat scenario. I hate to say it, but that is how I would probably get my payback if I were Calgary, not by fighting Gudbranson.I'm less worried about Prout and Peluso jawing at Gudbranson than I am about Neal potentially cheap-shotting somebody. Hopefully, it's a clean match.
I really really wish Torts was the coach just for tonightKellan Lain, Bieksa, Dorsett, and Prust all to return?
Yeah pretty much, if they injure Gudbranson its not really a bad thing for our lineup. But Pettersson, yikesI'm hoping our rookie doesn't become a target (you know - him) in a tit for tat scenario.

Sure hope I'm wrong.
Free preview on AHLlive too, if anyone doesn't know yet.$60 bucks will get you alll Utica games all season too.Excited for this game. Even more excited to see what Petterson can do with more ice and PP time.
Btw M2B, it will be a triple header. Utica will be playing as well.
The Flames fanbase has been tying themselves in knots over the Guddy hit/fight...Precisely what Canuck fans were doing when Ferland etc were taking it to us ...and we had no antidote.I think the Flames actions aren't actually about bloodthirst but about winning hockey games.
Gudbranson really set the tone for the last game and the Flames looked terrible for it. Physicality still has a place in today's NHL provided the player can skate and play. Watching the Jets, they absolutely dominate teams physically and it's part of what makes them so damn good. Watching the playoffs last year, Boston absolutely destroyed Toronto physically and ended up winning the series pretty easily.
They're bringing up these goons so they don't lose that part of the game to us anymore. I hope that's what it is, at least. It's going to be interesting for sure. Keep your head up Elias.

The shoe is on the other foot now...
