In the GT, before the game, I had posted that the interesting matchup was going to be the cold Flames' PP vs. the abysmal 'Hawk PK...how abysmal, you ask? Well, after getting torched by that Flame PP, the 'Hawks need to kill the next 44 times shorthanded IN A ROW, just to get back to an 80% PK.

A briskly paced game, both goaltenders could be accused of "stealing" points...Crawford kept the 'Hawks in the game early, Elliot bailed your guys late.

Odd and difficult travel schedule for your guys...rematch in Chicago on next Tuesday (sadly, I am working 2nd shifts, and cannot watch (and chat) live)...looking forward to round 2 of the season matchup, between two teams that move the puck, and take their chances.
