well a nice night for my fantasy team anyway
Flames actually played reasonably well for much of this game. Breakdowns happen, but when they happen for 5 straight minutes you lose games. This team just like last year's looks way too easy to shutdown. Pens barely had to work for it.
Good - Lindholm was quality, probably our best skater. Markstrom made a lot of tough saves, might have liked to see that 4th goal stopped. Coleman maybe. Duehr? I dunno, not a lot of positive standouts.
Not bad - Weegar, Andersson. Coronato nice goal kid, thought he struggled a bit otherwise. Backlund Gilbert
meh - Kadri was better than the opener I thought. Still didn't get a lot done. Huberdeau also maybe a little better? Coughing a lot of pucks up. Mangiapane some good some bad(1st GA)
Not good - Hanifin, Dube, Ruzicka, Sharangovich. Tanev is struggling, 3rd pairing is a early concern this season.
Bad - Zadorov was crap. Really bad even.
