Good show. Always liked Lundmark, hopefully he'll get a chance with Calgary again soon.

I've also always liked Lundmark.

He looked really good in the pre-season playing some top line minutes with iggy and such, but i guess there isn't really room for him on this team considering we have Prust and Roy as our 13th foward... Personally i belive he could help this team more then either of those two, but i wouldn't put Lundmark in place of Primeau. I would however place lundmark in the lineup over Nystrom at this point, assuming Lundmark could switch over to left wing.

Hes on a one way deal he would have to pass through waivers and I dont think sutter is going to take a chance on losing him. He does a great job with the younger players (chucko) and teaches them hockey. Hell he is one of the best skaters I have ever seen he is sooooooo smooth out there. I do like that they forgot to add the ot winner in there for Iowa a couple of weeks ago when he pulled a bubba and gave the puck up on the blue line.

Are you sure he is on a one way? Thought Sutter signed him on a two way contract in the summer.

Good for Lundmark. He seems to have found his game and that first line has been good for the flames the last couple of weeks.

Dont matter he has too many games under his belt. He would have to be put through waivers.
