Pre-Game Talk: Ottawa @ Calgary, Friday Oct. 28 9:00 pm on TSN

[Langdon Alger]

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

Their right side is pretty weak from what I can tell. Is Brouwer their best RW? If so, they're in trouble.

Brouwer, Frolik, Chiasson, Hamilton

 

[Six Assets]

Flames suck. I'd be disappointed if we don't win convincingly.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Not really, we should beat them like we did Vancouver, which could probably be argued was convincing win. Especially if EK-Methot play dominant against Gaudreau's line then we pretty much win.

 

[6stringmofo]

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

Hahahahah I would LOVE to see this!!

 

[Tuna99]

We should be motivated to win this game with Cameron on the other side. Would love to see Hoffman go all out this game and get a hat trick.

The PP is due in a big way. Hoffman is due. Phaneuf is due.

 

[Beville]

Please can we just beat Chiasson and Elliott...

Mainly to stop the haters who are all like "Elliott got so much better when he left Ottawa" - Yeah, St Louis can make any goalie look good...

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

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

Yeh, It's the weekend, I can stay up the whole game...

How i envision Cosmix and BiB if they ever hung out together:

I think most people have moved on from the notion that we traded away a great tender in Elliot. He's not a top goalie.

Made me laugh!

He is, and on the main board a Flames fan referred to Mark Stone as "the most overrated player in the NHL" and that there was nobody on the Flames he would trade for Stone...same fan was then lit up by his fellow Flames fans and several from other team's fan bases (even a - sitting down? - Maple Leaf fan! ). Hope Stone catches fire on Friday.

 

[Back in Black]

Agreed! Same with Lehner, and I believe Bishop is starting to show cracks. But some people might still not have moved on from the fact that we got nothing for Bishop.

Regardless, 1 day & 9 hours to go!

I thought most people were mad because trading Elliott away ruined the tank. Damn us for getting a better player in return.

We could have had Landeskog!!!!!!

 

[God Says No]

We could have had Landeskog!!!!!!

That was Andy no? He came in and stole a bunch of games for us, which in turn meant a lower draft pick.

Speaking of which, Driedger has been called up. Andy or Hammond injured?

It was, yeah. My comment was entirely sarcastic, incidentally.

Absolutely nothing on Twitter RE: Driedger. Curious.

 

[vdB]

Trade incoming!?!?

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

So do we play Dreidger or watch Hammond get lit up by Calgary's big guns Gaudreau, Monahan, Bennett and maybe even AC.

 

[Super Cake]

And Dreidger won't get lit up? He is a rookie goaltender that will be playing (if he starts tomorrow) behind a team that is still learning a new system.

He has the same chance to get lit up as Hammond does.

You give the guy who a solid camp and strong outing thus far in Bingo the start in the building that he played junior.

 

[OgieO]

Perfect game for Hoffman to get his first...

to be fair Gaudreau, Monahan and Bennett can light up anyone if given the opportunities.

I would start Dreidger though. I have little faith in Hammond. Don't mean to pee on your cornflakes in that regard.

mmmmm, there is nothing more tastier than pee on your cornflakes.

On a more serious note, it will be interesting to see how Dreidger plays if he does play.

 

[Blotto71]

His first, second, third...

 

[Tuna99]

Time for a Hammond run. Be good to see him win the game and get some Mo on our side. He looked good in preseason.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

I assume Hammond gets the start, but I'm interested in seeing Driedger play a full game.
