Something something sutter will learn his lesson ofc ofc.

Guys, relax. Its just training camp and we can infer that these definitely are not the final lines because Ritchie is not yet in the top six.

That’s good to know. At least sutter has only played zadorov on our top pair and gudbranson in the top 6, at least he didn’t f*** it all up right away.

 

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

Gaudreau- Monahan you say? 40 goals incoming.

25 for Monahan, 15 for Gaurdreau?

Eric Francis? Overreacting?

Shut up, it's his job.


Here's a take from a less sensationalist reporter.

If I learned anything from last year it's that Gaudreau - Monahan - Ritchie is probably the best trio in the history of the league.

Huselius, Langkow and Iginla still GOAT'd

What better way to develop a young defenceman than to have him baby sit maybe your 8th/9th best option

Nah man you gotta health scratch him left and right too so he “lEaRnS tO pLaY tHe rIgHt wAy” and “iSnT eNtItLeD.”

Gaudreau - 0 goals, Monahan - 1 goal, Ritchie - 39 goals.

 

[Bruisebros2426]

What's the thought about Ritchie's role? Is he slated to play regularly?

 

[HighLifeMan]

I honestly don't mind it with the exceptions of Zadorov being with Tanev (just doesn't work on paper), and Gudbranson being on the roster at all (but we are past that point).

 

[Dack]

First pairing Zadorov?

Let's f***ing Go!

 

[Bounces R Way]

Sean had better step up the bromance, Johnny is a married man now.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

I hope Zadorov just takes a page out of Tanev’s book. He’s got the size and skating to be a dominant force in a Sutter system. They don’t need to do anything fancy; just need them to dominate defensively.

 

[Volica]

To be fair, Tkachuk - Lindholm - Coleman might have like a CF% and xGF% of like 59-63% to be honest.

The best ting for d-men like him and Gudbranson is to not be noticeable because they're likely getting beat or making a bad giveaway if they're being noticed.

It will get to that point…I can already see it: Valimaki and Gudbranson bleed GA and Sutter parks Valimaki in the press box because he “still hasn’t learned how to play the right way and be a professional”, yet Gudbranson still plays despite everyone knowing he’s been a horrible NHL’er for the past 5+ years

 

[Some Other Flame]

Sutter just playing 10th dimensional chess here. Ice a terrible lineup, pissing off Gaudreau enough so that he refuses to re-sign thereby forcing the Flames into a rebuild. Sheer genius.

 

[Anglesmith]

There's a brisk chill in the air, leaves are turning colour, Flames fans are throwing themselves off bridges over day 1 training camp line combinations, kids are back to school... All the signs of fall.

 

[TheHudlinator]

Eric Francis? Overreacting?

Shut up, it's his job.


Here's a take from a less sensationalist reporter.

Positives- Mangiapane with Monahan, Mangiapane with Gaudreau

Negatives - Monahan with Gaudreau, Pitlick isn't on the 4th line

I think it's more 12 d chess, piss off Gaudreau then convince ownership only he can salvage the situation become GM play Gaudreau with Tkachuk and Lindholm and re-sign him.

 

[DFF]

This is a major problem and it is true. Monahan needs to be carried like a baby.

It’s true

Sutter agreed with me

 

[Kranix]

Everyone save yourself some stress, Johnny and Monny or going to get every long look together to start and it's not necessarily a bad thing
