Spoiler!

The Worst Team

I feel like this is another trap game, so let’s not fall into that trap.

Lots of empty seats in Calgary tonight

####ty weather/roads, basically worst team in the league, playing an opponent with 3 goals scored in their last 2 lol. I get it. It is striking tho

Edit: also midweek

Flames 32/32 in the NHL.
Just win.

“Your Soul is Mine!”

awww, the guy that played Shang Tsung died.

Oh no Johnny Tsunami! RIP bra

That's awful. I can't believe it.

Farewell, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa.

Greatest Shang Tsung ever. Rest in peace, Tagawa.

I'm so thankful and happy we got to see him play Shang again in MK11 - he stole the show in that game.

Literally the new guy in MK1 made sure to play almost a young version of Cary. That's how essential he is to the character. Basically what Trevor did for Kano.

3 minutes in, why does this feel like a trap game?

League-Sponsored Punching Bag

JFC, they tried to murder Ek just now

Ripped the helmet off, another no call

Ek is ready to drop the gloves with all of em

How many wives of refs has Ek ####ed to get this treatment?

Ek still has a pulse. He should know there's no call coming

League conspiracy against ek. He didn't even do anything.

Do players get a bonus for punching Ek or something?

that is egregious that JEE can be crosschecked in the neck, punched so that his helmet pops off, and then punched in the face

all of that AFTER the whistle and apparently all legal

The Prettiest Plays

####in shoot that!

We’re playing the worst team in the league, we should be shooting at every single look in the PP

PP needs to get its sh@# together.

Shoot the god damn puck

STOP PASSING, ZUC!!!

That’s like asking a fish not to swim

“I could shoot OR I could pass it through 4 Flames. I know what I’m going to do!”
-Zucc, probably

Hey making extra passes directly into traffic has worked really well so far so keep trying that- Hynes coaching this offense

He's sponsored by Jack Daniels, he knows about our drinking game so that's what he's gonna do.

Spend almost a half period 4 on 5… 0 goals

If our PP was working this game would be done

Stop with the extra passes

The puck is right at your feet.
What even are you Tarasenko? Do you hockey?

Get Tarasenko some ayahuasca already

Yuh. 4 min PP. Nothing. Let PP2 just dump a soupy corn laden load all over the ice for the first half of it.

Win streak or not, Hynes and his Gorby melanoma still suck.

Wild don’t do well against aggressive Pk’s. They don’t know how to move the puck quickly. They like being more methodical?

I know one thing. As much as I rip on Foligno, if he was here, he’d of started a fight or something by now to try to get them going…

Our PP looks like straight dog####

I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, YOU CANNOT SCORE IF YOU DON'T SHOOT THE PUCK

0 goals in 8 minutes of almost continuous PP

Well when you always wait for a perfect shot and pass around for 7 minutes and 37 seconds trying to set up that shot, thats gonna happen.

LOVE the obligatory faceoff loss and clear to start every power play.

This is so pathetic

What a pathetic period of hockey. Just limp dick offense beginning to end. Absolute ####ing waste of 8 minutes of powerplay.

Disgusting first period. EIGHT minutes 5 on 4 and we didn't score wtf

Hubey Dubey!

Was that actually Trenin or a Flame

Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

What is happening here.

We are playing like the worst ####ing team in the league right now. How many shorthanded attempts do we want to give away to the worst team in the league? They've probably got as many sog as us.

what is happening right now

They don't have it tonight.

Are we just playing to go home? What the #### are we doing?

For ####s sake, people saying trap game made it ####ing real

I swear I think our strategy has been let other team shell our goalie and also make us look bad.. then after they burned all their energy we take over in the last 30 minutes of the game. I swear it’s a trend with this team

Scoronato with the go-ahead

Wf was that defense

Craptacular

Lovely

How does the entire team decide to #### the bed on the same night?

Hope this wakes them up a little

We still only have 1 SOG this period?

Good to see we continue to play like ass after the goal

Hartman on his knees in front of Gus instead of playing a man or the puck.

This isn’t difficult stuff, just basic defensive mistakes

Hmmm. I was a little skeptical coming into tonight seeing the Flames were the worst team in the league and the Wild have a sad history of playing down to a weak team’s level. Seems like they’re living up to their history.

Zary Snipes!

So we're just going to lose to the worst team in the league huh

Not great

Man I don't know how they go from playing the most smothering, intense hockey to....whatever they do when playing bottom feeders

Scoring one goal against the Flames......argh.......come on, boys. Get mad.

We look like hot garbage

Okay guys remove head from ass please.

Just the laziest ####

Damnit! I did a really long blink and they scored twice

####ing embarrassing.

LaPanta, earlier this game: "The Kaprizov-Ek-Boldy line has outscored the opposition 6-0."
Since then, they've been outscored 2-0.
Jinxes aren't a thing.

3 - 1 is the worst lead in sports... right guys right??? Cope? Something... sad

Rasmus 360 no-scopes the empty net

did you just do a dump and chase with an empty net down by 2 with less than 90 seconds left? Go #### yourself.

Wouldn't have even pulled the goalie with how uninspired they're playing.

are they aware they need two goals and not one??

6v5 looks just like the PP, not shooting and dumping and chasing. Brilliant

Post game write up on this one is going to have to say, 'Sleepwalking in Cow Town.'

I want those 15 minutes back. I never should have talked myself into watching the rest. Oh well, maybe losing their streak will light a fire under them. Clearly something needs to.

Good night, what a ####ing #### way to end the day

Handed 8 minutes of power play time in the opening period right after Colorado looses and we come out with this level of effort and intention. This game feels a lot like October.

Rumor has it when Calgary players pee at the urinal they go so high it hits their face.

Ugly game from Minny tonight. Hopefully they bounce back against Vancouver.

audra martin: "the wild come up short thanks to our HOM Furniture post game report"
yeah #### you HOM furniture, blaming you for this loss

When our superstars don’t play like superstars and our defense is flat, this is the result.
Kap and Boldy on the ice for all 4 goals against. 4+ PPs, no goals, and only combined for 5 SOGs. They combined for 5 giveaways and 0 takeaways. The entire MN defenseman also combined for 5 giveaways and 0 takeaways.
Gus at 90% saves played well enough to give us a chance. Hopefully the November Wild shows up Saturday night. Need Yurov back.

Playing the perfect game and winning against the best team in the league and then ####ting the bed and losing against the worst team in the league 3 games later. That's the Wild experience. Oh well we can't win them all, don't lose your mind on this and focus on the next game. That will be the perfect time to start a new win streak.
