He was wearing a face mask in Calgary. Probably nothing serious.

Gradey getting exposed off the bounce by Bruce Brown, Scottie Barnes vanishing before our eyes...tough night so far for the future of this franchise
Not sure who in this starting group can reliably get to the rim. BI doesn't seem interested in it so far. Scottie doesn't seem to want the ball at all.

Yes. They spent all summer basically saying Ingram is expected to lead the scoring on offence and Scottie will be moving to a support role. That’s exactly what we are seeing here. And it’s looked awful. Maybe it’s the lack of Poeltl screens but so far iso’ing Ingram every time down is a bad look.
not strong, only aggresive cuz the power ain't directed/ that's why, we are subjected to the will of the oppressive

Scottie looks like he has been regressing, We would need All star Scottie for this team to be a playoff team this year but i feel we won't get that....Too inconsistant

If Scottie isn't passing, cutting or getting to the rim, he's a massive negative offensively

lol at least wait till our starting C is in the lineup to get the hot takes off. he's the guy that's gonna make life easier for all of them
