With 10 preseason games behind us and a Tuesday afternoon roster deadline looming, the Flames have some decisions to make. Based on what we’ve seen thus far, I don’t know if those decisions should be overly difficult, though. All three of Dillon Dube, Juuso Valimaki, and Rasmus Andersson have played well enough to start the season in Calgary. Making room for them on the opening night roster is relatively simple.
MAKING THE CASE
Regardless of any perceived roster backlog, all three of these players have showed more than well enough to merit consideration. While always taking preseason stats with a large grain of salt, it’s tough to argue with this trio’s individual outputs at five-on-five.
