The Calgary Flames hit the ice for their third day of training camp on Wednesday. There were a few changes to personnel, as well as discussion of the upcoming first scrimmage of camp.
Slightly different lines!
On Monday and Tuesday, Flames head coach Geoff Ward trotted out the exact same lines. But we were warned that changes were coming, and Wednesday brought us slightly different lines!
Via everyone’s pal Pat Steinberg, lines from the two practice groups. (Changes from earlier in the week bolded):
