The own goals thing has to stop happening at some time right? Right? It happens but all strung together like this? Pretty crazy stretch. When is the last time we saw Markstrom get beat by a puck off the oppositions stick blade?
I kind of hate to say it but I think the Flames should play Brodie tough. Not cheap, but finish every check, he really doesn't like it. He has some silent rage in him and can be goaded into a penalty. So strange seeing "our" Brodie with his head sticking out of that jersey. Wish him nothing but the best. Except when he's playing the Flames of course.
Go Flames Go!

I think the Flames should target Reilly on that pair. Brodie is really evasive and one of the NHL's best at moving the puck out of the zone, even under pressure. Reilly is not as strong defensively as Brodie, and is prone to making more mistakes. I would make sure the pucks go in on Reilly's side all night with a lot of forechecking pressure.
