It's been a long time since I have seen back to back flames wins. Being in the eastern time zone (and having to wake up early).
These guys are awesome. The game they play makes you happy just to watch them, then you see their speed and unending determination give so-called "high skilled teams" troubles and we out skill and work them.
Great game again from the new guys. Schlemko looked great, though with protected minutes. Shore's speed, reach, and work contributed directly to a goal. Backlund again unsung(ish).
I have been Luke warm on Colborne lately but then realized that he has been so effective that I don't notice him. Granted we would love him to show more of his skill and use his reach, or use his body size to gain advantage. But like a good shutdown guy, he has been consistent (granted I haven't checked any +/- or other stats).
Good feelings tonight with a nice scotch underflow.
