I’d be curious to know what a non-flames or oilers fan would think of a Sportsnet broadcast like tonight. As flames fans we all likely have some bias in what we hear, but if I take off my homer glasses I still think the overwhelming narrative tonight was oilers, oilers, Mcdavid, please get a hat-trick bouchard, oilers, oilers. Like when when you watch a bruins game and Edwards is insufferable… you don’t have to be a fan of the bruins or their opponents to recognize it.
In the second intermission Hrudey actually said he hoped the oilers great effort wouldn’t be soiled by the late flames goal. Are you F’in kidding me hrudey? Garbage journalism.

Really garbagey stuff and pro Oilers.
I don't know how you could weed out any kind of positive Flames narrative in what they said at all. Or much at all to do with the Flames for that matter.
You wouldn't know who scored for the Flames if you watched just the third period. They didn't talk about their tallies one bit, or who was contributing on the Flames side. I think just one obligatory Gaudreau mention.
But Bouch Bomb Bouchard was a big talking point. They were really trying to will that hat trick for him.
I don't know why Hrudey betrays us in these BoA broadcasts like that. Its really sad coming from a usually solid guy like him.
Oilers do good they milk them. Oilers stink they all feel sorry for them and root them on regardless.
No love for the Calgary viewers I guess.
