Okay, well I missed the initial posting furor but I have read the thread and... wow. This was a full-on CP meltdown. Kudos to the posters who managed to keep a hold of some perspective and even some optimism.
Short and sweet thoughts:
-Sucks they lost, thought they were the better team by a wide margin on the play
-Backlund was way better and obviously it makes a huge difference
-Elliott stood tall, but he's has to steal a game at some point here. No softies.
-Gaudreau's confidence must be in the gutter right now... compare his decision to pass that opportunity up to the goal he scored to tie the game a couple years ago. He's THE GUY for the Flames. He'll get back there, but I hope it happens in game 3.
-Ferland was great again
I'm so goddamn excited for Monday. The dome is going to be insane. Hopefully the Flames can carry on their good play, clean up the undisciplined play that has hurt them so much, and get a couple of great goaltending performances and head back to Anaheim all tied up and on a roll!
