Just back from the game!
Haven't read any game thread or post game thread stuff to taint my opinion yet so here are some random takes from me:
- backlund and Johnny look pretty good together so far. Not sure what jones was doing on that line but looks like similar chemistry for Johnny and mikael as Johnny and hudler
- bouma had a ton of good hits, thought he played well
- thought that both granlund and Wideman were terrible tonight. Making bad decisions constantly and fanning on the puck a lot
- Ortio was obviously awesome. Some luck but about 10 mins into the third I was wondering if it was destined to be (it was)
- don't know what happened to Smid but I'm sure I'll read about it soon
- my sister who knows nothing about the flames and hockey said 'Calgary is really good at sacrificing their bodies' I said yup #1 in nhl
- overall very exciting and nerve wracking game for a 1-0 and we definitely didn't deserve to win but there were a lot of dejected Canucks fans there and I will take the W and run!
