As usual, discussion about goaltending is completely off the rails. It’s embarrassing to this community when there are posters who talk about wanting to punch strangers for wearing a Mike Smith jersey, others who pontificate about his terrible lack of character, and a few who disparage his choice of hats. It’s disgusting. Smith had a bad game. Leave it at that.
There was a moment in last night’s post game panel where Brian Burke injected some much needed perspective. He said: “The team just won seven in a row. I don’t think anyone should be jumping off of bridges tonight.” He is absolutely right. But sadly, I also could not help but think that he must not read CP.
I sure do hate the Wild. I thought it was a really good, tight checking game that the Flames dominated. I thought the top line looked fine, but that Minnesota suffocated them—it’s what has been happening for a couple weeks now. This is why secondary scoring is important, and it is also why I am not overly worried about the playoffs regardless of the matchup.
