So much to like about this team, really working hard, smothers the other team on numerous occasions, youngster (Zary, Coranato) contributing on a nightly basis, such fun to watch.
Vladar had a great game with some key saves, two late goals suck but neither really his fault.
Not sure why some are bitching on Huberdeau after that game, he was involved all night long. Winning board battles, make passes and going to the net, had some good chances.
Biggest disappoinment of the night for me was Kadri. In fact when he was first out there for OT, I thought 'well there goes that game'. Seems to be making lots of errors, giving the puck away, needs to be better imo.
Overall a great game from the Flames, off to the road trip.

Kadri’s slap-pass to Pospisil was maybe the play of the game, but a typical knee-jerk reaction to Huberdeau hate is to counter with Kadri hate. I admit Kadri isn’t playing up to his level last season (probably our best forward last season) but he’s not playing terrible, give the guy a break, he’ll def get better.
Also Huberdeau is never going to be a 10.5M dollar player, so everyone needs to let that go but this is by far the most comfortable and best he’s looked as a flame. He wins so many board battles and 50/50 pucks, his strength is truly underrated. Zary’s always looked good this season but since playing with Hubie, he looks even better, yet everyone wants to hate on Hubie? You don’t think he’s a factor in that.
We’re a cap floor team that’s fighting for the division and it’s nearly December, what an amazing season so far!
