Came from Edmonton for my first ever playoff game at the Dome, with my two oldest sons (15 &17). despite growing up in St.Albert they are huge Flames fans.
Checked out the Red Lot before heading into the Dome for warmup. Seemed like a “nervous energy” in the buildup to the game.
- The first two periods were rough. The stars lulled the entire building to sleep and got a fluke goal.
- Coleman, Lewis and Markstrom were warriors tonight
- Tofolli and Jarnkrok were effective
- Backlund and Mangiapaine were the heroes we’ve been waiting for
- Tanev was uncharacteristicly bad with the puck
- First line struggled to get in sync
- The third period was a clinic - the Let’s go Flames chant was the turning point!
It was a wonderful playoff experience. So many high fives, chants, and horn honking on our walk to the hotel. My oldest son and I both lost our voices as well. Such a great night.
