The Schmaltz trade looking better and better each game.

It's looked great from Day 1

I’ll take John Henry. Geldings keep their head in the game. Stallions are busy trying to line things up after the game.

Always watch the horses as they go to post. Place your bet on the one that relieves himself on the way out....he’s running light!

that sneaky thief kane...

WTF...who is that #11...where did he come from over the last 2 weeks
- bogiedoc

Kane clearly pissed...

Who?

Hate to say it, but if the refs won’t do their jobs....
- StLBravesFan

i didn't think there was anything wrong with that hit...other than done on a top player...DON'T TOUCH MY GUY...

Perlini clearly channeling his inner michael frolik..

Yeah I know guys, I need a drink....
- TrueGrit

Wrong. It was his inner Hossa!!!

Rakell says he is concussed!
- powerenforcer

His head took a wicked and awkward hit to the glass. A concussion wouldn’t surprise me at all.

Yeah, I get that, but if you're still getting all of your scoring from two lines, does it matter if Kane is on one of them? Does it drastically change the defensive effort? I think for the latter, it just finally clicked with a lot of the guys and would continue regardless of where Kane plays.

Guys in the booth talking about how frustrated he is acting. Just think it's a crappy way to handle your best player.

ETA They just had an extended camera shot of him on the bench. He is PISSED. Yes, it's a team sport, but he also has earned the right to expect to be on a better line.

I am not buying that at all. When he is frustrated he floats. He has been all over the ice tonight. He is back checking. Threw a hit. Coming all the way back on D.

Kane clearly pissed...
- TrueGrit

Yes, I fully expect him to just sit down on the ice and stop playing.

Seems you've forgotten how he had his best season ever after being falsely accused. I think anger and frustration motivates him.

Offsides?no - good keep.

Dat bum Dahlstrom.

Nice pass by Kampf!

Do you think Frolik is a bad hockey player?

Offsides?
- StLBravesFan

Nah.

Damn.

Boyz are in in FLIGHT.
Dahlstrom made a play.

See above, but I think he floats when he doesn't see that they have a chance at the game or at a playoff spot. Not the best trait, but that's when I've noticed it the most.

Frolik couldn't score with the Hawks. Plus, Frolik always was a good defensive player.

He is pissed every shift he does not score. That is why he is an elite pro.

Kane can skate with you and me and still have 70 points.

I would not read into it that he is mad about line mates. The team is playing best hockey of season with this alignment. (I know small sample size)

Nice pass by Kampf!

That was really nice! Very glad he made it back.

Winning does cure all ills, tis true.

now its that sneaky kampf with a pass that somehow misses 3 sticks and 3 sets of skates and find 14 for the open net goal.

outstanding hold by 63..yotes were fleeing the zone..

- Elbows15

Right because he was learning how to play defense, but if Perlini is as good as Frolik that's a bonus for the Hawks.

- BetweenTheDots

No it is just my childish reaction to a post the other day about Perlini needing to accept a bottom six role like Frolik.

Frolik since he left plays 2nd and 3rd line minutes and has been solid. A big part of Calgarys ascent.

He's shown an elite level of drive his whole career - continuing to add to his game after 3 Cups and a long-term deal.
