Even Karri Ramo, Joni Ortio, Jonas Hiller, Mike Smith, David Rittich, Chad Johnson, and Cam Talbot had some great individual performances for us.
I actually would love it if that aged poorly, though. I'm ****ing sick of goalies crapping the bed since young Kipprusoff. Even old Kipper was pretty meh.

lol okay, its obviously been more than that...and downplaying the Peguins because they are missing players? They just beat the Leafs 7-1...Markstrom was obviously full marks for the 45 save shutout.
He was the difference tonight, get used to it
very few goalies get a shutout in this game, its not like the Flames locked it down or something
