No Monahan?

No Monahan?

look closer

 

[Seele]

Lauri Korpikoski is also attending World Cup.

 

[viper0220]

look closer

Now I see it, I thought Monahan was suppose to be ready for the start of training camp.

Now I see it, I thought Monahan was suppose to be ready for the start of training camp.

Don't ask me, I just deliver the information. By the time he's ready I'm sure cuts will be made and that will influence where he goes. Or by the time he's ready they'll be down to two squads.

Sportsnet broadcasting schedule shows only 2 of the Flames preseason games being shown on TV, is there anywhere else a person could watch the others that you guys are aware of? Legally of course

IIRC they usually stream the home games on the Flames website and YT channel if not on TV

Tkachuk - Bennett - Brouwer...

it almost sounds like a real NHL 2nd line.

As it should be.

I am much excite about this. Yes it means Backlund is the 3rd line C, but him and Frolik will make a great pair for a true shutdown line.

 

[MonyontheMoney]

I don't think it matters honestly, it's most likely going to be a 2a/2b situation no matter if he's considered 2 or 3 C IMO.

 

[tmurfin]

I don't think it matters honestly, it's most likely going to be a 2a/2b situation no matter if he's considered 2 or 3 C IMO.

That's how I see it as well. Backs/Fro as more of a shutdown 2, and Bennett/Brouwer as a physical grinding 2, both capable of bringing offense.

 

[Calculon]

Chiasson on the top line it is.

 

[Anglesmith]

Chiasson is a candidate, but he's far from the only candidate. There's also the fact that he's been somewhat useless these past few years.

Shinkaruk might be a candidate

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Shinkaruk might be a candidate

This. He looked pretty good with them for the brief period last season. Gulutzan is also familiar with him from Vancouver.

I think the Split squads games Vs Oilers are on the websites.
