Sandra PrusinaGUEST
They played together for such a long time as they both became professionals in North America.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
But for him to fit in seamlessly with Jonathan Castagna, and that's to be said with I think with Jonathan Castaigne he fits in with everybody but for him and William to have such good chemistry right out of the gate not surprising because William has essentially played with Rory Perrins as a center he's played with Ben Jones as a center.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
But I thought he actually really fit in nicely with Sam Morton and Tyson Gross.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
So he's turning into one of these guys who's a Swiss Army knife.
6 MINS LATER
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
I think out of the gate was really impressive.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
But then at the same time, you did have Jonathan Castagna and you had some of those bodies in between then and now.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
You've seen Ben Jones get called up, William Stromgren get called up, and you've seen some shuffling of the lines, whether it be due to injury with a Connor Zeri or you see an addition.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
Brayden Pahal has been absolutely fabulous on the back end.
Matt RoseHOST
love it.
Matt RoseHOST
He's like Ben Jones.
Matt RoseHOST
If you lost a veteran forward and you needed a guy for two games, Dryden Hunt can play any role on the team.
Matt RoseHOST
He'll take an NHL check.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
just given his team the run support they needed to eventually take the lead at the end of the game there with Nylander.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
And that goal was, what was it, about three minutes to go? The second one, and we talked about it a lot, Ben Jones and what he brings to this organization today.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
it was interesting during the summer months I didn't really know which way the team would go and then when I saw that they signed Ben Jones I thought to myself okay they mean business they want to create a winning culture a veteran who is so good at the AHL level where you can play him top six he can play any sort of situation power play penalty kill up by a goal down by a goal and those were really the two standouts to me and just to get Ben Jones back was huge
Matt RoseHOST
Yeah, he gets that empty netter at the game, which is a place where they were really needing a little bit of help after that road trip, kind of closing out some games.
Matt RoseHOST
What did you make of the road trip? 3-3, win the first three, lose the next three.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
He's been called up since actually to the LA Kings and Abbotsford.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
I don't know what it is with Abbotsford over the past few years, but at Rogers Forum, the Wranglers seem to struggle and Abbotsford perfect at home this season in both instances.
Sandra PrusinaGUEST
Calgary scored the first goal went into the third period with the lead but it was that puck management and it was critical situations of the third period where not having a Ben Jones really stood out to me so Abbotsford is loading up its top line right now Jacob Quillen Treyfix, Walansky, and Coland.
Kevin OlenickHOST
Yeah, he's got 10 points in 10 games.
Kevin OlenickHOST
I mean, based on what they did with Ben Jones, that would be the argument.
Kevin OlenickHOST
Dryden Hunt could be the other one.
Kevin OlenickHOST
He's got 9 points in 10 games.
Kevin OlenickHOST
yeah
Trevor NeufeldGUEST
yeah i
Kevin OlenickHOST
mean everybody's been pretty high on him what have you thought of ben jones
Trevor NeufeldGUEST
uh he's pro i think he's unfortunately i don't think he has the foot speed to kind of hang in the nhl maybe that gets better maybe yeah maybe there's something hampering it but he's looked slow he's trying to get things done in tight which is what he has to do but like you just watch him in transition and he is behind on the play so that's that's unfortunate i'm cheering for ben jones
Pat SteinbergHOST
Well, they've only got the one extra forward in Siplikov, so especially with them going out on the road for a little bit, my guess is if Hoffman was out for a little bit, my guess is that they would recall somebody.
Pat SteinbergHOST
They actually have a spot right now because Ben Jones has been sent back, so it might be a time because Hoffman's a winger.
Pat SteinbergHOST
might be a time to bring in a guy like William Stromgren and give him the reward because he's been really good for the Wranglers down there.
Pat SteinbergHOST
So my guess is if Hoffman does need to miss any time, my guess is that they would recall somebody.
36 MINS LATER
Pat SteinbergHOST
Anyway, I hope Cooley's injury doesn't affect his game and only gets stronger, and I hope he wasn't faking it.
Pat SteinbergHOST
Just kidding.
Pat SteinbergHOST
With that being said, who are they calling up for the backup position, and are you recalling Ben Jones again or someone else? I was fortunate enough to be a season ticket holder this last season in the Dome, so I'm enjoying every game regardless.
Pat SteinbergHOST
Go Flames, go.
Pat SteinbergHOST
How would you sum up the first 10 games of a new year in the American League?
Brad PascallGUEST
um yeah five and five as you said i i would say overall really positive you know uh first and foremost we had three players that were uh called up to the to the nhl flames um in castagna suniev and and ben jones so that's always a success for the america league team when you move players along um and number two i think we got off to a really good start we we We won three in a row.
Brad PascallGUEST
We were on the road for quite a bit.
Brad PascallGUEST
We played six of our ten games on the road.
Brad PascallGUEST
But, yeah, we're excited about Sunyev and hopefully that he stays in the NHL the whole year.
Pat SteinbergHOST
Yep.
Pat SteinbergHOST
The other name that I think is really important to point out, I know how excited you were personally, Brad, because Ben Jones had been with the Wranglers before, and you had brought him in to play with the group a number of years ago.
Pat SteinbergHOST
He went and spent a couple years in the Minnesota organization, then rejoined the Flames organization this past summer.
Pat SteinbergHOST
Yeah, I've always
Danny AustinGUEST
been waiting for the question to come up on some level, like just whether it's with Ryan Hucka in a post-game avail or something, just being like, well, what do you do with Dustin Wolfe? And the reality is, The Flames have established a culture and are trying to establish a culture where the best player plays, and whether that's a call-up from the Wranglers and it ends up being Ben Jones instead of one of the bigger names, or whether it's a net, I don't think Dustin Wolf can have any complaints right now.
Danny AustinGUEST
He wasn't playing well enough to be able to say, hey, I'm the franchise goalie.
Danny AustinGUEST
Put me in.
Mark GriffithHOST
So Backlund, For sure.
Mark GriffithHOST
And I didn't mention it yesterday, but Ben Jones was reassigned back to the Wranglers.
Mark GriffithHOST
Ball with Nemitz.
Mark GriffithHOST
Nemitz coming off of his best game of the season.
John EasthopeHOST
He's got one of each for two points in 11 games.
John EasthopeHOST
But really jumping off the page to me, and I know people hate plus minus, he's plus two on a team full of all minus players other than Ben Jones.
John EasthopeHOST
He's a plus two on this roster.
John EasthopeHOST
I think we're finally seeing a little bit of an evolution to Kevin Ball's game today.
Matt RoseHOST
He beats Bobrovsky up top.
Matt RoseHOST
Michael Backlund returns, replaces Ben Jones.
Matt RoseHOST
He's able to score off of a turnover.
Matt RoseHOST
Easton Cowan has been getting a lot of praise for the Toronto Maple Leafs over the last little bit here.
6 MINS LATER
Matt RoseHOST
Yeah, one for a twirl.
Matt RoseHOST
Great to see.
Matt RoseHOST
And Ben Jones was assigned to the Wranglers, which we talked about a little bit yesterday afternoon too.
Matt RoseHOST
No surprise there with the captain being back.
