The Flames are 28th in the NHL regarding even-strength possession, everyone said they couldn't buck the numbers two years in a row....and so far that's absolutely 100% true.

(frank) the Flames

Pretty hard to judge a teams possession after only 5 games, you need a much larger sample size to filter out the noise.

That said I don't see any reason why their possession should improve dramatically. I can't see them changing their playing style as long as Hartley is there and IMO that is why they are a poor possession team.

I wonder if they'd move Kris Russell. We could use a puck mover like that.
Would Hansen get it done?

- Bieksa#3

Not sure they'd entertain a player 4 player move....not to mention I don't want any of those ass-clowns on our team

Something about the ref not banning people for hurting his feelings.

-just but hurt

-Sutter playing well
-Hutton playing well
-Sbisa playing fairly well
-Miller playing well

So basically he has nothing to say

If my memory serves me correctly. Russel is a UFA. I'd rather Benning not spend a lot this summer, but I'd like another puck mover

Yup, lesson learned. There is a high road on hockeybuzz. I assume you and Marwood are travelling it now.

Desjardins confirms McCann won't draw in tonight, still not medically cleared to play. I hope like (frank) he doesn't start having concussion issues.

Or maybe they're trying to milk this in a way like they did with Horvat? Buy them some more time for his 9 games, maybe even get him a conditioning stint down in Utica?

They're not even allowed on the ice per the no concussion protocol I believe. He was at practice this morning

Speaking of which, I think think Booner said it best....Sutter is not a pretty hockey player to watch, but, he's been very effective in all situations so far. Have to get used to him looking awkward out there.

He looks like his leg strength is really poor?? But he's getting the job done in every facet of the game.

Yeah I agree. Not not great at anything, solid everywhere. He's kinda like Higgins but with a little better hands.

I think he took a pretty good hit in the Blues game, just hope it's nothing serious.

Needs to be more like Weber. Just give them the puck so they don't hit you.

@VanCanucks: Horvat on facing Connor McDavid for the 1st time: "He had a break-out game last night. We need to get to him quick."
