The Flames have been showing the Oilers WAY too much respect for the last while, and playing tentative, defensive, and even scared hockey.
Last night they didn't show too much respect. They played aggressively and physically. They brought the game to the Oilers, and forechecked, which is how you have to play them (if you sit back and play defense, that plays into their hands). It was great to see.
And if last night didn't demonstrate that the Oilers are the dirtiest, deuchiest, and suckiest team in the league, then I don't know who is.
And watching Ron and company - ON HNIC, FCS - giggling and cheering on the spearing and other disgusting deuchiness, was the lowest point I have seen for NHL broadcasting, yet.
