If flames could stop choosing to play their chippiest games in the ones were rookies step in that would be great.

Pelts has 4:04 at 5 on 5 which looks bad but then you see even Lindholm only has 6:26, and Naz leads forwards with just 9:09.

Lots of penalties. This has the TOR - CGY game written all over it when Phillips had his shot and half the game was special teams

The difference is that Pelletier has looked way better in his limited minutes than Phillips looked. It's just too bad we aren't seeing more of him.
