Pre-Game Talk: Training Camp Roster and Schedule

[deleted user]

Issue with Hunt is that he isnt great on faceoffs and by his own admission isnt the most comfortable there. I wouldnt mind Hunt - Schwindt - Duehr being the 4th line though. That line could skate and have some jam.

Hmmm. Yeah, I like it. That's not anything I'd get up in arms about. I hope they do it!

I'm sure this news will crush so many of you...

You never want anyone hurt. Hopefully he'll recover just fine.

 

[CamPopplestone]

Yeah Rooney was at least a good hand for the AHL who has NHL experience we could call up in a pinch, even if he's not that good you don't want to hear this. There's very few players I'd wish injury upon

 

[Rubi]

Does anyone know if Kylington is in Calgary or has he returned to Sweden?

 

[Lunatik]

I think Ruzicka should be the 4C as things stand.

 

[EXTRAS]

Expected opening night roster?

 

[Lunatik]

Speaking of 4C, I just noticed Jankowski was waived today. With the injuries to Pelletier and Rooney, it's a role Jano can play and he could fill a spot on the PK.

Also depending on the status of Kylington, I'd take a flier on Cal Foote

If he isn't retiring, and would be willing to sign with us for under a million, I'd bring in Stastny if he'd come here with the injuries.

He should be retiring. He's not good.

He was as of a week ago. Reporters have refrained to ask for updates to give him space.

Rather have Zary get his shot.

I'd rather Zary get a chance to be the 1C with the Wranglers and try and develop his offensive game more. With Jankowski you can move him to either the wing, the press box, or even the waive him again and if he clears he can help the Wranglers.

@CamPopplestone I've always really liked Stastny, but at his age not being there on day 1 of camp makes him an unviable option IMO.

Fair. But I’d still rather give him 5 or so games in the NHL and then plug someone like Schwint into that spot than go back to the Janko well.

Flames Make Roster Reductions | Calgary Flames

The Flames have now 30 players remaining in camp

www.nhl.com

Wolf, Zary, Kuz, Pourer & Ciona sent to the Wranglers. Honzek to WHL Giants.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Wolf should ask for a trade. Ridiculous. He should have been the guy last year.

[deleted user]

Eventually Wolf is going to ask for a trade. You can just see it happening. It's so Calgary.

 

[JPeeper]

CP all overreacting about Zary and Wolf getting sent down. Not surprised with the level of overreacting over there.

Zary on the first line for the Wranglers getting 20+ minutes a night with PP time > playing 4th line 8 minutes a night. Flames want him as a top 9 guy, not on the 4th line, he'll most certainly be the first call up if there is an injury, literally how Mangiapane made the team, how Jankowski originally made the team.

And just because Wolf won the MVP of the AHL doesn't mean squat, let him do it again, it isn't going to hurt his development. Having him play 50-60 games > playing 15-20 as a back up.

Coronato made the team, Pelletier probably does too if not for the shoulder injury, people need to chill out on Flames management because they don't have their entire roster filled with rookies.

 

[deleted user]

Yeah, hopefully. We'll see how it all plays out.

 

[Lunatik]

So after DeSimone, Pospisil and Pettersen go through waivers that brings camp down to 27.

Does that 27 include inactive players? Because if so, that'd include Pelts, Rooney and maybe Kylington still.

I'd check myself but am on my phone and not my laptop.

You need to relax dude.

Wolf has earned zilch. Give it a rest. You can't get this upset over goalies, which are voodoo and almost impossible to project, even season to season for workhorses like Vasilevsky,

Why Rooney is there over Zary is frustrating, personally.

He is injured and can't be sent down (maybe he can, but it's irrelevant because of the injury).

 

[deleted user]

Oh. Well, that's unfortunate.
