Well, here we go again. Hopefully the boys will play with some effort after that stinker against Arizona. Will the Flames singe the wings of the Flyers and send 'em crashing?

Philly is known for it's cheese steaks, but That Darn Puppet has his own take on the idea of "street meat":

Spoiler!



Go Flames

With the Kings not playing until tomorrow, they will have three games in hand on us with either being a point up or a point down.

I think being a point down with having played three more games is a hill I'm not sure the Flames can climb out of. And this is coming from a pretty positive guy when it comes to Flames' chances.

Still have 4 games against them which will probably be the final deciding factor.

Sure but to think they're gonna sweep the 4 of those is wildly optimistic. Even getting 3 wins is just a four point swing between the 2 teams.

Would be nice to see Elliott step up. Johnson is a career backup for a reason and there's nothing left for him to prove going into the offseason but Elliott has a lot on the line going into free agency. If he can't rise to the occasion in these key games it's likely certain he won't be back next in Calgary.

Jekyll & Hyde team. They win big tonight, further baffling us.

You know it's bad when all you hope for is your favorite professional sports club players simply show up and put in an effort.

Take it a shift at a time
Play a full 60 minutes
Play the right way
Get pucks deep
Hard on the forecheck
Win puck battles
Be hard on the puck

Anything else?

This is Johnny's hometown team. He's played really well against them, 6 points in 4 career games. I'd give him a ton of ice time tonight. Just let him loose.

Shots on net, keep pressing, make it hard for other teams to play against us. One game at a time. Have to focus on our game.

It would really help if Brouwer actually showed up for a game.

predicting a frustrating performance, lack of effort again.

another 'must win' and the performance will have us all pulling out our hair.
