The trade deadline is coming up, Rasmus Andersson is still in the AHL, the Flames could use another winger, their powerplay is only just now finding its legs, Mikael Backlund got a contract extension, the Olympics are on, and Christian is out of town so I did this week’s mailbag. Let’s get to it!
Seen the idea of the Flames calling up Andersson and running 7 D instead of 12 F. With the idea being they could take some stress of Brodie-Hamonic, and play the 4th line less. What is the viability of running 7D? Could it work?
