Meh.. can't win every game.
Positives:
Flames fought back to tie it.
Less than half the team showed up, but almost managed to take it to OT.
I thought the reffing was atrocious, but they made it close.
Lucic - Bennett - Dube line still looks good, and Bennett improved the top line for a short time, and got a PP goal...
Negatives:
This team has a lot of passengers. It isn't about the top line not scoring tonight - which is finally catching up to this team - but it is how easy they are to play against, and how they just seem to give up momentum every time they go on the ice.
Hopefully they come to play tomorrow. It is hard to win a series if your best players are consistently your worst players. They are so disengaged from the rest of the team right now. How can you go into the locker room after every game and look Bennett, Lucic and Dube in the eyes? It looks like Bennett is playing hurt, but he is competing every shift and getting rewarded while he is doing it.
