It starts with a road meeting against the Edmonton Oilers affiliate, the Bakersfield Condors. The Wranglers are perfect against the Condors so far this season, picking up wins in their last two games on Nov. 1 and 2. They\u2019ll look to keep that perfect record alive in a one game stop on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>Last game\u2019s lines\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Calgary\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Dryden Hunt (inactive) \u2013 Justin Kirkland \u2013 Matvei Gridin<\/p>\n<p>William Stromgren \u2013 Clark Bishop \u2013 Martin Frk<\/p>\n<p>Aydar Suniev \u2013 Sam Morton (inactive) \u2013 Carter King<\/p>\n<p>Alex Gallant \u2013 David Silye \u2013 Lucas Ciona<\/p>\n<p>Artem Grushnikov \u2013 Daniil Miromanov<\/p>\n<p>Nick Cicek \u2013 Hunter Brzustewicz<\/p>\n<p>Jeremie Poirier \u2013 Simon Mack<\/p>\n<p>Owen Say<\/p>\n<p>Ivan Prosvetov\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Bakersfield\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Isaac Howard \u2013 Josh Samanski \u2013 Quinn Hutson<\/p>\n<p>Roby Jarventie \u2013 Viljami Marjala \u2013 Seth Griffith\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Rem Pitlick \u2013 James Hamblin \u2013 Rhett Pitlick<\/p>\n<p>Connor Clattenburg \u2013 Matt Copponi \u2013 Daniel D\u2019Amato<\/p>\n<p>Riley Stillman \u2013 Atro Leppanen<\/p>\n<p>Damien Carfagna \u2013 Luke Prokop<\/p>\n<p>Mason Millman \u2013 Beau Akey<\/p>\n<p>Matt Tomkins<\/p>\n<p>Connor Ingram\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Leaders<\/p>\n<p>Calgary\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Dryden Hunt \u2013 15GP, 5G, 11A (inactive on NHL call up)<\/p>\n<p>Matvei Gridin \u2013 14GP, 6G, 8A<\/p>\n<p>Rory Kerins \u2013 13GP, 5G, 9A<\/p>\n<p>Bakersfield\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Rem Pitlick \u2013 14GP, 5G, 9A<\/p>\n<p>Viljami Marjala \u2013 14GP, 2G, 11A<\/p>\n<p>Quinn Hutson \u2013 14GP, 6G, 6A<\/p>\n<p>Notes and expectationsThis week brought some movement between the Wranglers and Flames. Sam Honzek\u2019s injury and week to week status called for some reinforcements. It also opened up a chance for Calgary to try something different at center. Rory Kerins got sent back to the Wranglers after a two game appearance and Dryden Hunt and Sam Morton were called up.\u00a0 <a class=\"text-accent\" href=\"https:\/\/flamesnation.ca\/news\/flames-make-three-roster-moves-sam-morton-and-dryden-hunt-recalled-from-ahl-rory-kerins-back-to-ahl\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">All transactions took place on Monday<\/a>. Dryden Hunt was called up once before this Fall but did not play in any games so far this season. This is Morton\u2019s first look up at the Flames since his season finale debut in April.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Wranglers still have some guys to pick from on the forwards side with Parker Bell and Andrew Basha as extras last game. However, that\u2019s all they have at this point. There will likely be some game day transactions coming up from Rapid City. Carter Wilkie and Brett Davis are familiar forwards that played games with the Wranglers last season, but there may be an appetite to bring in some new guys as well.<\/p>\n<p>The Wranglers went 3-1 last week and someone who stood out was Matvei Gridin. Gridin was kept off the scoresheet entirely for three games and came back last week with a point per game. He scored in both games against Henderson, including the shutout breaker in the last five minutes of Sunday\u2019s game. He\u2019s generated some good chemistry with Justin Kirkland and Dryden Hunt on the top line so it\u2019ll be interesting to see how he does when the combinations get a little switched up for this game.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This game has a little later start time than usual, being on the West Coast, going at 7:30 p.m. MT. Streaming options are available for a fee on Flo Hockey and FlamesNation contributors, Ryan Pike and I will have updates on X (formerly Twitter). <\/p>\n<p>Sponsored by bet365:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Calgary Wranglers play three games against three different opponents this week.
