I had my tab still open so here are my thoughts from the first PGT:

Thought it was a great game, maybe the most exciting of the year.

Hawks were going to battle back and they're still a very good team, but the Flames were unlucky not to get the 4th goal in regulation on a handful of plays.

Thought Mangiapane was fantastic. I see he was only credited with 2 shots somehow. I counted 3 clean shots and 2 tips in front. He was great and made the 4th line look dangerous.

Also, even though Chicago started to shoot from everywhere and got some friendly bounces and looked good in terms of corsi at the end of the night, the Flames outchanced Chicago 15-10 in high danger situations.

Great game to end 2017!
