Default Almost the end, Ott at Cgy, 6 pm, snw,

Some fanbases have the luxury of having their seasons over with, the Flames still have 5 more to go

Win and keep hoping for Montreal to choke or lose and keep losing for a top 5 pick

If we lose today, the Sens will have a higher point percentage in the season.

A game with even a modicum of pressure?

Flames lose.

As if the Oilers would want to do us any favors. Watch them start Koskinen the last two games.

I don't know the exact date but heard that since early April the Sens are #2 overall

For everyone who said they were out of it a month+ ago the Flames just needed a couple more wins and they would have had a playoff spot on the line Vs. Vancouver that has packed it in. They blew it, I can't see the Oilers beating Montreal twice in a row at the best of times let alone when it helps the Flames and they have already won their personal stats cup.

We all heard Smith’s response.

I could see him throwing a game against Mtl, even let it go to OT, just to spite the Flames

Cheering for a win until they are mathematically out of it though, on principle

Ottawa is 8-1-1 in their last 10, the best record in the league in that span.

Cool, cool.

Sens had ridiculously bad goal tending in the first half...now that is sorted they are a good team.

I'm sure zero pressure doesn't hurt either

Gawdin and Kylington are supposedly playing. I’ll watch because of that. Granted I would probably watch game without them in also. Still hoping to see Phillips .

A bit late into the season to ask this, but what are the rules for bringing in taxi squad guys and minor league guys? I really want to see them #### the bed amd not get a single point here. Hire me to be the starting goaltender to make sure no single point is earned here.

The Flames should be trying 100% to win this game...its unlikely Montreal losses 2 in a row but still its possible.

For those final four games you will know before hand if they have any meaning

Happy Kylington is in but Nesterov is not who he replaces

I don't get Sutter. Ritchie on the 2nd line, Kylington in (which is good) but Valimaki out which I don't like. Play the guys who might have a future on this team. Scratching young guys and giving prime ice time to plugs seems pretty silly.

Flames will lose tonight to allow the Habs to back in the playoffs before going 4-0 down the stretch to miss by 2pts and go from picking 5th to 10th.

This is the way

Flames are trying Monahan on the wing so they can see Gawdin at center. Too bad they did not try Monahan on the wing a couple years ago so they could see what they had a center then.

I wish this was an afternoon game today. I need some background noise for my nap.

Some posters say they won't tank, looks like a good ol tank to me. Ritchie on any line other than the 4th line is tanking.
