<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KingofRnR</b></div><div>Let’s see if Mang is any better of a fit at 1RW. Would like to see Ruzicka &amp; Coronato be given an opportunity at 1RW as well, but the BEST 1RW option imo is Nazem Kadri

I’d like to see Coleman play back at Centre to see what that looks like as well</div></div>

That'd be interesting. I guess he's gelled a lot with Backlund but definitely they should shake it up and try things out. Backlund with Coronato seems like a good pair too, similar to Backlund-Tkachuk

Kinda crazy how it's so hard to a fit for the $5M+ players. I've always been a fan of Kadri but has under-utilized his line mates since he joined the Flames. Mostly trying the breakout wide and when he can beat out the D, he just tosses up a lazy pass. Definite mismatch with linemates. Possibly they should try him with Sharangovich (seems to always create space receive a pass) and Duehr (crash the net).

Thread: Flames best case scenario - opening day
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AnonymousSensFan</b></div><div>Is the best case scenario really your highest paid D, starting his new 8 year deal, playing in the 3RD spot?

I'm a fan of weegar, has his play been bad?</div></div>

He's been pretty decent, I think he'll still get 20+ mins a game, during even-strength, the 3 pairs typically get similar ice-time.

It's speaks more about the issues with the Flames' defence lineup than Weeger. He's probably the most capable of being moved around the roster.

Hanifin is very shaky playing defence and is least out of position when playing with Ras. Tanev and Osterle are pretty steady defensively, so I'd rely on them more than the other two pairs. That leaves the odd pair with Weeger and big Z, who've played a lot together last season as the third pairing.
