Gulutzan is at it again. New goalie. New forward. Old face back on the blue line. Yikes. Freddie Hamilton will hit the ice for the first time this regular season and Dennis Wideman’s sabbatical in the dog house is over, for now, as he returns to the lineup as well. The most shocking of the player shuffling comes as Chad Johnson, not Brian Elliott gets the start against the Blues. Here’s the rest of the Flames line up for tonight:
FORWARDS
Johnny Gaudreau - Sean Monahan - Michael Frolik
Kris Versteeg - Sam Bennett - Troy Brouwer
Lance Bouma - Mikael Backlund - Alex Chiasson
Micheal Ferland - Matt Stajan - Freddie Hamilton
DEFENCE
Mark Giordano - Dennis Wideman
