I didn't think it was that bad of a game. The Flames were badly outplayed in the 2nd period, so that was tough to watch... but otherwise I found it to be a pretty good game. The Hurricanes play good, disciplined hockey and played a good road game tonight. I thought Darling had more big saves that Smith (though Smith was fine) and it could have gone the other way tonight.
Gaudreau-Monahan-Jagr generated quite a few good chances tonight. Jagr should have had a couple goals. Backlund and Tkachuk both had close calls on breakaways too.
I dunno... this thread seems overly negative. I would love see a few line up changes though and get Glass, Stajan, Bartkowski, and Ferland out of the line up or on a lower line in Ferland's case.
