Flames played well but Markstrom played better. Not much you can do there.

...

Now, let the hysteria ensue

Hope Smith isn't hurt, he didn't look the same after that awkward save.

GG needs to manage his bench better.

Hope mike smith isn’t hurt too bad. Definitely a lot slower after that awkward save in the first.

Great game, in general very good execution, just wish they won.

If they play like this more often it'll be a great season.

Please lets all take a collective deep breath before jumping off a ledge. Good game but vancouver capitalized on all their chances and we didnt. It happens. As long as bart is fired into the sun we will be ok

Flames deserved to win this game. Dominated the Canucks for a large portion of the game, but it just didn't go their way tonight. It happens. Canucks scored on every mistake the Flames made and Markstrom played better than Smith. Sucks, but you can take a lot of positives away from this game.

Said it in the GT but when those two quick goals were scored by the Canucks. GG should of shortened the bench and rode the top 2 lines hard for the rest of the game. I hate losing to the Canucks!

There was some good but the bad was too much to overcome against a hot goaltender. This team needs to get this sloppy hockey out of their system.

Canucks did a good job to clog up the lanes, and Markstrom was just really good. You can't win them all. Flames did a great job on offensive zone pressure and I thought had a lot of really great chances. Just move on to the next game.

Yeah, you can not let in five goals. Three goals scored should have won this game easily.

Smith should have been pulled after the 3rd goal. But that's an in game adjustment not in GG's repertoire.

There's a significant gap between top 6 and bottom 6, but the coach doesn't see it.

Special teams a definite factor. The shorty negating some of the good work on their own PP and the PK gives up two again.

Just one of those games where everything went right for the Canucks. We absolutely dominated that game and lost. We've already had quite a few wins where we were the ones that got lucky too.

Bennett and Jankowski are getting closer and closer to receiving their first points. Jagr was good.

Brodie and Hamilton were awful tonight. They need to step it up. A turtle would have beaten Brodie in a race on that 3rd goal.

GG needs to stop playing Bart and Kulak so often. Kulak needs to know when to pinch and when not to. The 5th goal was his fault.

Flames should've won 15-5 the way they played. In my opinion, there are few players to blame for this loss - namely, Bartkowski, Brodie, Kulak, Versteeg (to an extent), and even Smith.
