Final Boss Vibes
Quote:
Flames are lighting everyone up right now. This will be a tough one, especially after coming off another lengthy layoff and having a not so great game against SEA.
Big test.
|
Quote:
Calgary played last night, if they can weather the storm and get into the 3rd tied, might have a shot if Calgary is on empty. Need to get at least 4 out of 6 points on this trip.
Then the 6 game home stand is really an opportunity to get back into things. Being cautiously optimistic. Have to see what happens. That Seattle loss really took the wind out of their sails.
|
Quote:
Expecting to get worked in this one. Calgary is legitimately good and we are bad on the road.
|
Quote:
Man it's dumb how good Markstrom has been this season
|
Quote:
A hot Flames team and a long layoff for the Ducks. This will be an easy win.
|
Quote:
Expecting to get killed, which means they’ll surprise us all and win 4-1.
|
The Goon Squad
Quote:
Tkachuk was about to hit Milano who was defenseless and Zegras hit him before he got to Milano.
|
Quote:
So, does Tkachuk run Zegras in the first period, or wait until the 3rd?
Payback is coming.
|
Quote:
God I can’t stand tkachuks face
|
Quote:
Most punchable face in the NHL.
|
Quote:
Lucic used his free hand to pull Zegras down, then gets knocked over with a clean hit...Calgary powerplay
|
Quote:
2 minutes for pushing a guy to the ice.
|
Power Kill
Quote:
4 min and 1 shot. The days of having a surprisingly good PP are very much over.
|
Quote:
The team needs to capitalize on those opportunities. Another power-play coming up, let’s see what happens
|
Quote:
Henrique man, put that on net from the middle of the ice
|
Quote:
Getzy, it’s not a fake slapshot if you literally never ####ing shoot!
|
Quote:
Gets maybe should shoot when he’s wide open with momentum towards the net. But nope, fake shot then throw it away every single time.
|
Quote:
Getzlaf and Henrique already frustrating
|
Quote:
I think they have as many shots on goal this power play than we did in 3 power plays
|
Quote:
Lmao. Nothing's going right for Silf this season, huh.
|
Quote:
Imagine if that was Terry instead of Rakell shooting and out there... Why is our best player not on the ice for the full 2 minutes... instead he gets left over seconds.
|
Quote:
Getzlaf looks old. Rakell looks useless.
|
Quote:
4 minute powerplay and we got the same amount of shots. 1. Nice.
|
Quote:
Oh good….. another 4 mins to waste.
|
Quote:
That was elbow with a follow through of the butt end.
Absolutely a penalty.
|
Quote:
Damn ducks now can only waste 2 mins
|
Quote:
Rakell for the love of god please become at least competent at shooting
|
Quote:
Six minutes of power play in the first eight minutes of the game and the Ducks have two total shots……
|
Quote:
They should practice shooting and hitting a barn to begin with.
|
Quote:
The penalty has expired, and so have I.
|
Hot Hands Dillon Dube
Quote:
Yeah I think this game pushes us to sell at the deadline. The long breaks and covid issues really depleted our momentum. Hope they at least win tomorrow for my birthday.
|
Quote:
Of course. Ducks deserve that
|
Lindy jams one through
Quote:
Uh, did that actually go in?
|
Quote:
Free fallinnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Welcome back to 2020-2021.
|
Quote:
All because of a ####ING HORSE#### CALL. #### CALGARY
|
Quote:
Hey look at that, bunch of shots then a goal after rebound.
|
Quote:
Start a poll, will we allow more than 7 tonight?
|
Quote:
You can shoot after quick passes on a pp? I guess you learn something new everyday
|
Quote:
This is gonna be a long night.
|
Quote:
Also, worst possible outcome in terms of special teams tonight: 0-5 on PPs and we haven't even played half the game yet. The league is going to give us like 8 or 9 as a game management favor down three goals and then use it as an excuse to make sure we don't get another one ever again.
|
Lindy writing a book on self-help
Quote:
Calgary is getting every bounce possible this period. We have been the better team.
Thought that was a good period, but special teams did us in. Gibson has to be better.
|
Quote:
Losing special teams and mediocre goaltending is a good way to earn a deficit. It's too bad because we have played them fine.
|
Quote:
Ducks puck luck since the break has been zero
|
Chucky is Enjoying this Game
Quote:
It's 4-1 and I am not enjoying this meme
|
Quote:
It's 4-1 and I am not enjoying this game.
But I'm getting a slight chuckle at the memes explanation.
|
Quote:
They have rightfully earned that meme.
|
Quote:
Gibson just can't make a stop when we need it. Make a save man, come on.
|
Quote:
Regardless, we got caught on our heels and defended like #### on both of them
|
Quote:
Did all the flames fans here just learn their first sentence?
|
Quote:
It's a straight up echo chamber in here.
|
Quote:
Flames finishing every hit and play. I miss seeing that.
|
Quote:
I can't even be mad about it now...
|
Quote:
So much ####ing standing still Jesus
|
Quote:
The Flames are just picking off all of the little reversals our forwards do in the D zone lol. you do have to skate once in a while.
|
There’s Always Hope!
Quote:
Ducks down by three playing against a team from Alberta, if only it was the oilers though
|
Quote:
That game has ruined hockey for me. I can't turn a game off and go to bed in peace anymore. I gotta watch until the end now. Even if it ruins me.
|
Quote:
Our last flash of playoff brilliance. Only to fail to the god damned Mustard Cats
|
Johnny into the EN
Quote:
Nice job Silf, kill any momentum.
|
Quote:
Hazy: "Tired Flames out there"
*Flames immediately intercept and clear*
|
Quote:
Dallas Eakins is an unserious coach and we are an unserious team
|
Quote:
With how slow 85% of our players are you'd think the Ducks were the ones on a back to back. We desperately need talent and speed at this deadline, so many relics of Bob Murray still left here.
|
Quote:
Johnny Punk just skates circles around the Ducks….
Sigh.
|
Quote:
Remember our defensive depth before lol.... damn how far we have fallen. Murray really f***ed up with Theodore and Montour.
|
Mangiapane, Home Turf Defender
Quote:
Literally just watched the puck pass right in front of him wtf
|
Quote:
WTF was that lol. That wasn't on purpose was it?
|
Quote:
Well this got pathetic fast
|
Quote:
Love that after Pateryn gets skated around like a traffic cone he's right back out there to get scored on again. Coaching!
|
Quote:
That probably does it, shame. Couple of really stupid goals.
This offseason I really hope we shore up our depth. The AHL roster is also in shambles, which is ridiculous considering how much we are spending on the big club (hardly anything).
|
Quote:
Yeah this is the game I was expecting. Guess we'll see what we can get for our UFAs
|
Quote:
I miss having a team that could literally afford to sleepwalk for 2 periods then blow people out in the 3rd.
|
Quote:
They’re at least not getting horrendously outshot.
|
Quote:
ell. That's it for me. I don't mind losing if the effort is there and the games are entertaining, but that seems to have disappeared. Hope they get that figured out.
|
Quote:
Why did they pull with zero possession lol, and with 3+ to go on top of that
|
Quote:
Calgary played last night and still out worked. This team needs to find their skating legs fast or this is going to be nightly occurrence
|
Quote:
These are dark times right now.
|

Our Tendys Suck and Theirs do Not
Quote:
What are the chances the Ducks would actually trade Gibson? He has a M-NTC so I can’t see any chance of him ending up in Edmonton.
|
Quote:
Me
|
Quote:
No chance, I don’t see them ever trading him unless dostal really develops into an elite starter. But even then it would be a couple years
|
Quote:
I've noticed that 95% of my watching other teams is just me actively wishing failures and losses on teams and players around the league.
|
Quote:
I wish the oilers played with the relentlessness the flames do. It’s night and day difference.
|
Quote:
Anaheim or Calgary and Vegas lose in regulation please.
|
Quote:
Man the Flames are given so many breaks by the officials. If McDavid did what Ruzicka did the announcement after video review would've been:
"After video review, a match penalty has been assessed and McDavid's actions have been referred to the Alberta Crown Prosecutor for Assault. 3rd round pick to Calgary"
|
Quote:
Will a real NHL goalie please show up……please show up…..against the flames.
.833
.845
.828
.808
.818
.920 - Yotes so it didn’t matter anyway
.900
|
Quote:
Gibson started in Calgary tonight but only played half the game, so he's probably playing tomorrow.
|
Quote:
5 powerplays each for Anaheim And Calgary.
Little lovetap to the hands causes Ratmouse to lose his balance and stumble somehow and results in a Flames powerplay.
|
Quote:
Pains me to say it, but go flames
