Things are going pretty well for the Flames.
They have one of the top scorers in the NHL, and three lines that are creating chances (plus a fourth line that can at least play a regular shift). Their starting goaltending is making saves, their top defensive pairing is shutting opponents down, and their third pairing has been, for the most part, reliable.
With so much success up and down the lineup, that makes the one key problem that much more glaring. So it begs the question: what do you do about T.J. Brodie and Travis Hamonic on the second pairing?
