that was a frustrating game to watch for most of it. flyers got some godly puck luck and smith crapped the bed once again. the third period, the string of bad pps against the worst pk in the league (plus the shg against) nearly made me stop watching, but the ending was glorious. loved the celebration from gaudreau. the game meant something to him.
despite the horrible scoreline for most of the game, mainly stemming from smith being horrible again, the flames handily outplayed the flyers. please, for the love of god, let rittich have the net for a while now. he made several huge saves despite the limited shots against and made the all-important one in ot when monahan lost his coverage again. rittich has earned the net several times over this season
