Description

Coaches decision to sit him tonight doesn't make a ton of sense, he's played his best two games of the year in the last couple against the Jets.

The Flames next five games are in a ten day period against the Canucks and the Oilers both of which have only looked good against the Senators and each other, good chance to pick up some points with a roster piece quarantining for at least 10 days as per the rules in Alberta.

The piece returning in the deal then slots in the line up fresh off a 2 games in 2 nights against the physical Oilers to play the quick skilled Leafs. Today makes too much sense for it not to happen, the lukewarm stove is warming fellas!

Oilers fans should be thanking me for throwing in a 7th.

Amen, just trying to keep it civil on the site. We all know what goes on behind closed doors though, McDavid is flown to Calgary every game day to tie Bennett's skates. He will be serving him hot dogs in the press box tonight
