00:00It's dramatic as shit.
00:10So we always like to do, like I said, the look at team totals during the year, or during
00:16the preseason and the previews leading up to the year.
00:20But don't always click with the player props.
00:23But there are a couple, when we're looking at it from a Calgary Flames standpoint, that
00:27I actually kind of think are a little bit interesting to look at.
00:31And so the first one, now, with the Flames this year, there aren't many.
00:36Like if we were doing a Toronto Maple Leafs podcast, we have a lot to pick from.
00:40But for the Flames, there isn't actually a ton.
00:45But there are still a couple that I have my eye on.
00:47And the first is Dustin Wolf.
00:50You guys know I have been doubling, tripling, quadrupling down on my Dustin Wolf content
00:55this year, and so I do think that there is going to be a real resurgence for this guy.
01:03And his total for the year is at 21 and a half wins.
01:07I have concerns about picking an over on anything that goes with Calgary Flames wins this year.
01:16But I do think he is going to be the main goalie for this hockey club.
01:21And I mean, 41 wins, sorry, 21 wins is 42 points.
01:27They're probably going to get 42 points at different points this year.
01:29So I think that he is still going to be good enough, that he is going to steal a couple
01:34of games.
01:35I think even without Sharon Govich, there's going to be enough offense to kind of steal
01:38a couple of games.
01:40Have concerns about the goal, or about the defense, 100% I do.
01:43But I think that they, I still think there are going to be enough wins in there that
01:48Dustin Wolf gets over this 21 and a half mark.
01:51So that is the first one that I'm looking at.
01:54The second is Nazem Qadri over 30 goals, or just to reach, sorry, just to reach 30 goals.
02:01That is at plus 200 right now.
02:04So that is one that I like.
02:05Again, for those on the, you know, the regulatory side who may be watching, this is not gambling
02:11advice, this is just things that I like.
02:13Let's make that abundantly clear.
02:15I'm not saying do this.
02:16I'm just saying that, you know, it's something I'm thinking about.
02:19For the Flames last year, Nazem Qadri had 29 goals with this Flames team.
02:24Now, at least in the early part of the season, he is going to be starting with Andriy Kuzmenko
02:30on his side.
02:32That is a really good playmaker that Nazem Qadri has at his disposal.
02:36Also, the Flames power play was dogshit in the early part of last year.
02:39Kuzmenko comes in, fixed.
02:41So I think there's going to be more power play goal opportunities for Qadri this year.
02:44I think there are going to be more regular, even strength opportunities for Qadri.
02:48And so, both of these are assuming health.
02:52But I do think that Nazem Qadri to get to 30 goals at plus 200 is something that I do
02:58like and I do have my eye on.
03:00Not telling you to do it, just, you know, something I have my eye on.
03:03So that is the last little bit of the Flames preview.
03:07If you haven't noticed, or if you are new here, I do the kind of mega previews for some
03:12of the things that I have done.
03:14And so every Flames preview bit that we've done on Couch Potatoes so far is going to
03:20be compiled and we're going to play that.
03:21And I think I'm going to try to stream that before the show tomorrow.
03:26That is going to be kind of the plan there.
03:28So get ready for that.
