I missed the entire first period but at least I saw the best part of the game. I thought the Flames the puck battle on every instance. They are all over the Canuck players and they really frustrate them. Karri Ramo was pretty good tonight and it is always nice to have two goalies who can start and put up a good fight. Sean Monahan was flying tonight and could have scored a hat trick at least. The whole line played so much better tonight. Lance Bouma is becoming to be the fan favorite lately with his kamikaze play and with goal scoring. The guy is like an Energizer Bunny who keeps on hitting, skating and blocking. That whole line are match made in heaven. Mark Giordano's instinct every game is to join the rush all the time. No wonder the guy is having some success this season. I think Hartley made a good call in putting Jooris tonight over Bollig. Not saying he could have a make difference last game but tonight I know he was good.
