Wow.

 

Nice to see Monahan have a strong game too, hopefully he can build off of it.

Really good puck support work by him on the Tkachuk goal. He's coming around. Hopefully Lewis finds a finish or 2 also. Mony fed him a coupla good passes.

Liked Pitlick's game too, looking fwd to his 1st as a Flame. He looks like he's getting comfortable.

I hoped for more from Z. Thought he'd be a decent stay-at-home guy, but he's out of position a lot. Looked like he wasn't sure how to keep McEwan away from Markstrom. Yikes.

Thanks for grabbing the reigns of opportunity Kyl. And looking very confident doing it.

Pitlick is a great pickup for a 3rd liner.

Defensive player first.

I loved that pickup. By itself, many said whatever, but as a whole it created options, like Dube and Mangia together, sliding Dube to C, etc.

It enabled us to build another line. Not, "should Dube or Mangia play on Backlund's wing"? Neither.lol

Interested to see how Richardson slots.

While Ritchie adds some jam to Dube's line, he just doesn't fit the skills.

It works some shifts, but it kills offnse others.

Monahan is looking better, so it may just be a question of not having a 4th C.

If Richardson comes back, then we might have that 4th C and move up Monahan.

Let's face it, he was rusty.

I don't feel that a connected Monahan would be anything other than a boost for Dube and Mange.

 

Haven't seen enough of Richardson to say he would be a good fit.

Who do we even take out to insert him?

About the least effective player out there is Ritchie.

But a 4th line Ritchie is not the worst thing I can think of.

Kylington-Tanev had a terrific night. The numbers confirm the eye test. Better than 80% corsi for that pairing.

 

Zadorov-Gudbranson struggled, again the numbers confirm the eye test. 

 

Three of the forward lines had great nights. Coleman-Backlund-Pitlick had the toughest night. I thought they were fine, but they also had the toughest matchup of any Flames forward line.
