Feels like the Flames play to the level of their opponents though I know this isn't always the case. Hope for a big night from Jankowski and a statement game from Elliott.

You know what, the Flames are still fragile. Maybe a bit of playing down to opponents too, given their recent losses.
But if there aren't any more QUESTIONABLE consecutive PHANTOM CRAP calls on the Flames today, then they may well stand a chance even with moose. Both the Sabres and Flyers games the Flames were not resilient and got down after the opposition pulled ahead, couldn't recover. Yes that's on the team. But both were spurred on by some eyebrow raising onslaughts on the team by the guys in stripes. I really hope the calls are substantial today at least...
No Tkachuk or Wideman getting the box for incidentally bumping into another player....please and thanks.
Really need the good Elliott to step up tonight. Best of luck to the kid.
