Not sure... last 2 games Elliot played well. Still, would be nice to see a win.

That means he is due to stink it up. Elliot does not have a history of sustained success - why do you think that the Blues kept trying to replace him every playoff series? Good starter on a top defensive team, but I think he's going to struggle playing 60+ games and being "the guy" in Calgary.

My only concern with this one is matchups - I'm nervous about seeing Johnny Hockey matched up against our third pair with Calgary having last change. Overall, though, our lineup is definitely deeper than Calgary's - if both teams play their best hockey we win this one. Just need a split in Alberta and this will have been a successful trip...

Interesting what our line up will look like and who is the "top" line, 2nd, 3rd etc for match ups. Pageau's group always makes noise. And Dzingel sure looked comfortable with Brassard.

Chiasson with a hat trick.

Chiasson with a hat trick.

We're due to give one up, AND it's a former player.

Book it.

Chiasson hatrick
Elliott shutout
Dave Cameron's powerplay goes 5 for 5

 

[J0sh]

Hoffman will request to kill penalties just for this game, Then proceed to score 3 short handed goals while staring down Dave Cameron.

Calgary will be a bit tougher than Van ,they have some good pieces .Plus JG will be at home ,and he just dominates there .Need to keep him in check

A 3-wins trip would be a massive confidence builder



GO SENS GO

One game at a time ,these next two will be far tougher.Calgary is at home ,and what little offense they have seems to dominate there.EDM will be a huge test ,tons of speed and skill in their forward ranks .Their defense can be beaten though

chiasson has one goal in 8 games. Lets see if he can double his goal total

I dont understand why people think he would dislike Cameron. His icetime and role went up after firing maclean

 

[Larionov]

I loved how Flames fans were exactly like us upon acquiring Chiasson. They look at his build and occasional flashes and dream that they will be the ones to extract the potential from him. After all, he does look the part of a classic power forward. ("Looks good getting off the bus" as my father likes to say.) Too bad he has zero hockey sense and hands of stone.

I sense a two goal night from Hoffman on the way - he's way overdue.

 

[Cosmix]

Last year Calgary was 12th in the western conference and Ottawa was 11th in the East. I expect a close game between two bubble teams. Hopefully Ottawa will get the puck luck and the win.

A 9:00 pm puck drop means I will get to bed at 11:30 instead of after midnight! Yeh!

Chiasson was my most hated after boro last season. Need to win games? Chiasson no where to be seen. Must lose game for a draft pick? Chiasson starts scoring game winning goals. **** him.

If chiasson scores I'm turning the game off.

He's playing with Monahan and Gaudreau - keep the remote handy.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

We have to wait until Friday for the next game? Humbug!

The NHL allowed time for the Sebs to hike from Vancouver to Calgary. Good team building and all that
