Should trade them for some vets at this point. Our Vets need veteran leadership.
Hockey terrorism
I too would rely on this lineup for tanking.
Give in for Gavin
Huska reminds me more and more of Sutter with each passing game
except we don’t get elite defensive zone play like we do on a Sutter team lol
Before everyone freaks out, people got to remember parekh is still a 19 year old kid. He’s going to sit games here and there to not over work him.
Hes on PP1. he’s being thrown out when down a goal, net empty and a minute left. He’s played on 4 on 4’s. Overtimes. Etc. The kids an investment.
I understand sitting Parekh for a game. But was Coronato really bad enough to warrant another bench?
Insanity
The only reason I keep watching games this year despite the team being mid af is because of Wolf, Parekh and Coronato.
Now Coronato and Parekh are on an insanely short leash despite the biggest mistakes this season have been from the vets. Wolf is also playing too damn much and will get burnt out by the 2nd half of this season.
Huska is a hockey terrorist lol
Yeah… the Coronato mismanagement is crazy. Healthy scratch fair enough, get him fired up, but then he was put on the 4th line, like what’s the goal here, because it’s definitely not actual goals. Gotta prioritize development over squeezing extra wins out of a squad that is not going to make the playoffs this year.
For Parekh he has played 9 games this season. When he plays 10, his first year of ELC will be used up. If he doesn’t, they still have him for the full three years of ELC starting next year.
They are likely punting for another game or two on the decision to start the clock on his ELC now or send him down and wait until next year.
Yeah I’ve been a Huska fan through this but this is truly perplexing. It seems the overachieving oversteer year is actually happening. The team had expectations this year and Huska is reinventing the wheel.
Don’t really like this coronato handling.
Totally cool with parekh getting games off, though.
People shitting on Huska are genuinely [redacted]. The dudes job is to win games, he doesn’t give a fuck about tanking or what the fans think lol. He’s trying to make chicken salad out of chicken shit
I thought Coronato played fine last night given he was on the 4th line. Weeger and Backlund had horrible games. Don’t know why Coronato would be left out after last night. I still don’t like Bean or Hanley and would rather see us trade them and bring up young guys and start a real rebuild. This isn’t a playoff team. They need to stop pretending like it is.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Huska is Darryl Sutter 2.0
lol you guys still defending Huska?
Flames have too many forwards on the roster. Coronato wasn’t bad last game, but he is not a 4th liner. Sharagovich, Farabee, Honzek, and Frost are currently in the line up spots the team would want to deploy Coronato. However with all 4 of them getting a goal recently Huska probably wants to ride the “hot hands”. I don’t think the benching has anything to do with Coronato.
I expect we will continue see some more frustrating benching decisions until late December to March when teams start explore trades more seriously. Just the nature of having 13 active forwards.
Are you trying to sam bennett him 😑
I’m just gonna say it, if Daryl Sutter was playing Justin Kirkland this much (2 Goals in 30 GP) or Ryan Lomberg (34 Goals in 369 GP) over the rookies, people would be crying in every thread about how he favours the vets over the unproven rookies like Matthew Phillips or Jakob Pelletier who are currently in the AHL. Not sure what the bias is for.
This is unethical tanking, husk what are you doing brother
I’m driving from Montreal to Ottawa while here on holiday from Australia and back the same night for this shit.
Thanks Huska. You’re dead to me
What’s the point of watching this team if we don’t play our young players?
Huska wants Mckenna more than the fans atp
Coronato and Bahl are fighting it a bit this year
I’m surprised no one is talking about them putting Sharon back to center instead of continuing to develop Zary there. They already said that Sharon was impacted by having to switch back and forth, and his main issue is his inconsistent effort so I don’t understand why they’re going back to this
The youth movement in Calgary continues.
Ah, yes, benching two of your young players you want to be stars when the franchise is in a new building in a couple of years instead of getting game experience against the perennial hockey juggernaut that is the Ottawa Senators.
Hopefully they take the time to observe “how to play right” and incorporate elements of savvy veterans like Blake Coleman and Kevin Bahl into their game.
Calgary Flames hockey baby.
I can’t wait till we trade our good players and it’s just rookies out there losing games until we get McKenna.
I wasn’t on the fire Huska train, and I’m still not 100% sure that I am, but it feels like there’s at least one perplexing coaching move happening every game…..
Zary has looked good at centre, why are we putting him back on the wing for Sharon? Throw Farabee on the 4th line and move Coronato up- benching him again after deploying him on the 4th line makes no sense
I guess I can see sitting Parekh for a game, he’s young, whatever, but he’s also part of the reason why PP1 has looked more dynamic….
Riding wolf super hard too, after a good outing by Cooley against Utah…… is Huska in full desperation mode to keep his job?
I get that the organization is still in a “try to win” mode, trades are still a long ways off, but it feels like management might need to step in soon and mandate more of a “development” plan instead of whatever this is
Edit: the Frost move to RW seems like a stroke of genius in retrospect, but that feels like one of the only good moves we’ve really seen the coach make so far
