While true, Detroit's game plan I think is just chaos. They don't set up often just chase the puck everywhere. I thought Calgary was a little slow with decision-making in their own end. Detroit is big on risk on the PK. They generate a lot of 2-on-1s. I think this season start is a bit hectic for everyone because the team's haven't familiarized themselves with each other in so long.

Hearts, you are frigging hilarious.🤣🤣🤣 You're correct, that comment has gotten exhausting. Not mentioning any names JJ.

That’ll do it. I wanted OT.lol

The back and forth's picking up.

Should be a whale of a 3rd.

Eeks 12-2 in shots. Flames better results with less shots.

Wings are pretty aggressive on the PK, always.

So far so good! Took a bit to get moving.

Wings fans are awesome.lol

+everything RD, as always. Nedeljkovic I would prefer. Greiss has been nails.

We love that choice:)

Stevie's 1st yr. "Just get a big D prospect...". He's a little tentative peeps. just starting out. But you definitely see a killer dman once he settles in. He's 20. 2 years of SEL. Great patience by Detroit. He could have played last yr. Better minutes in the SEL.

What do you think of the lines? Not sure what Sutter is doing, but I'm glad that he knows.

What an odd fwd lineup. Sutter trying to find the matchups?

Unfortunately, they aren't the floor mat Anaheim is right now. Surprisingly.

Seider as well. I can see a Norris in his future. Vs Tampa, after the whistle, he took the puck from Hedman and slid it away. Hedman didn't like that transgression, Seider didn't care. That kid is going to be a handful. Nobody has beaten him 1-on-1. The best way I can describe the Wings after that Tampa game is angry. They are dangerous in this early going.

Not the game thread. I'm not going anywhere near what the Doctor provides.❤️ Just some discussion. First thing I want. Coleman-Backlund-Pitlick matching up with Raymond-Larkin-Bertuzzi. Larkin-Bertuzzi are full of piss and vinegar. Coleman-Bertuzzi lining up is my main watch. Raymond has a wicked shot. Need Hanifin on him. D's 2nd line Fabbri-Suter-Zadina are fast like Dube-Mangia. This isn't last yrs Detroit. Wings fans are joking Stevie's built a goon squad.lol New motto, Us vs the World. D is: DeKeyser-Hronek Leddy-Seider Staal-Lindstrom Greiss has been spectacular. Watch the Detroit feed if possible. Class of the league by a lot. Lidstrom sat in for 10 mins vs CBJ. This is going to be a tough matchup. Thanks TBag, Detroit is jacked and playing hard and fast. Put your seatbelts on.

Kerins (#23) crushes 2g, 2a last night vs Sudbury in a 4-3 ot win. Moves him into a tie for 5th oa in pts. 6gms, 3g 5a. https://ontariohockeyleague.com/gamecentre/24829/boxscore

Exactly. I think he should start tonight tbh. Best to get him involved quickly. We really need him to manage Markstrom's workload, so we should find out quickly if he's capable, not just B2Bs.

Completely agree. Looking fwd to the Richardson and Pitlick additions.

Maybe this is the right place? Not just AHL prospects, but a fun little read: https://thewincolumn.ca/2021/10/20/calgary-flames-prospect-roundup-young-stars-heat-up-to-start-the-season/

I think that's a lousy message if so. They were beaten by a great goalie. Why re-invent the wheel 2 games in, I'd be aiming to grow consistency, not chaos.

My first question is, do we wait for a back-to-back to start Vladar? That would give Markstrom the first 5 starts and Vladar the Oct 26th start I'd do Vladar against Detroit personally. Excellent showings by Wolf and Sergeyev so far.

For jj, I get that there's a goaltending thread. But it started 8 yrs ago and is 491 pages of irrelevant at this point. In the system: Markstrom - #1 Vladar - #2 Prospects: Wolf - AHL Werner - AHL Chechelev - AHL Sergeyev - USHL Parsons - Lord only knows but it's getting late-Refuses to get vaccinated. Why don't the Flames be brave like NYI and CBJ and just state their policy? Bye Parsons.
