Roster situations are always fluid. But long-term depth isn't there in Calgary so you can see why Foo made the choice he did.Darren Hayneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18313656680741630135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6422944892527683969.post-29933092047789077212017-07-05T08:08:50.876-06:002017-07-05T08:08:50.876-06:00This is a year to watch for Lindstrom, who surpris...This is a year to watch for Lindstrom, who surprised Flames staff by staying up with the big team most of the year. Didn't get a lot of minutes in a 4th line type of role but that experience should pay off moving forward. Yes, will also keep an eye open for him this week. Not sure what his time line is for coming over to North America. May not be for a while yet. We'll see.Darren Hayneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18313656680741630135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6422944892527683969.post-40451141962227727472017-07-04T14:38:32.735-06:002017-07-04T14:38:32.735-06:00Yes, you are prying... respect his privacy and che...Yes, you are prying... respect his privacy and cheer him on!Johnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6422944892527683969.post-79859969677894216872017-07-04T14:36:04.245-06:002017-07-04T14:36:04.245-06:00Interesting to note that Spencer Foo picked the Fl...Interesting to note that Spencer Foo picked the Flames because he would have a better chance at making the Flames; Ty Rattie signed by the Oilers picked them because it was his best chance to make an NHL team.

Considering he was drafted at 6'0" and just 165 lbs yet already plays against men, could he be a good centre replacement for Jankowski in Stockton? It's worth watching him.Brodano12https://www.blogger.com/profile/02109022811660006360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6422944892527683969.post-69336323489987937322017-07-04T07:45:19.933-06:002017-07-04T07:45:19.933-06:00I'm glad to see that a number of the guys are ...I'm glad to see that a number of the guys are RH as this team has so few RH. Like many here I wonder what went wrong with Poirier; I know that the Flames are respecting/protecting him through FOIP(I agree that they should)and all that but it sure interests me. We know for instance of Ferlands battles and McGrattin's battles. Whatever the reason is I'm hoping and prying that the young man has dealt with his issues and is getting the help he needs.
