Not a good game.

I have to challenge you on this. The Flames dominated the first few minutes of the 3rd. They were still playing well until Eberle scored and then they started backing off just a little. The Hemsky goal was a total fluke and it broke their back (play a great game and still be tied…I'd be broken too). Then you have the Perron goal and they had an expression on their collective faces like "WTF is the point of even trying anymore?"
It was one of those nights where nothing really went our way despite badly outplaying the Oilers save for 5-7 minutes in the 3rd. I don't know what to say about it really…time for alcohol.
