Brent Krahn on The Back to Back Losses and The Future of Flames Goaltending

On hour 2 of the Big Show, Matt and Peter are joined by our Big Show Flames Analyst Brent Krahn. The guys get into the good the bad and the ugly that was the weekend for the Calgary Flames. The guys discuss Jacob Markstrom's great performance against the Flyers and how he had to deal with a lot of adversity in that game as Philly made it hard on Markstrom all game. Huberdeau gets a goal and 2 assists this weekend as he continues to be hot in the new year. The guys then breakdown what went wrong for the Flames this weekend as they get into the constant turnovers, the struggling powerplay and the lack of compete in Chicago.

(25:28) To wrap the hour, the guys have a conversation on what the Flames should do with Dan Vladar. Krahn explains why bringing up Wolf after this weekend performance by Vladar would be an impulsive move by the Flames. Just throwing Wolf into the net and putting Vladar on the shelf wouldn't do Wolf or Vladar any good. Later the guys get into a broader NHL discussion as we have seen a lot of dangerous hits this season. Does the NHL have a major issue on their hands? What can they do to eliminate these hits?
