Default Flames 3 Ducks 2 (OT)

Flames 3 Ducks 2 (OT)

- Flames win in overtime on another Huberdeau goal
- Moms trip off to a good start
- Wolf solid in the first when the Flames struggled
- Connor Zary with what looks like a season ending knee injury

Hope Zary isn't facing a long recovery. His development has been a bright spot on this team.

I’ve never attended a game at Honda Center but you imply your experience(‘s) haven’t been great 😂. Great summary as usual.

Was there with three of our kids, and took a lot of verbal abuse.

Nothing like my experiences in LA or SJ.

It was mostly just CP members angry about the ads taking over half their phones

Nothing threatening.

Kids just didn't feel comfortable cheering for their team. Lots of language and taunting etc.

Then tried to move up and was told I'd have to go to the ticket office and pay to upgrade my seats.

I would concur that the vibe was not as pleasant as some other arenas.

LA is fine. Vegas is great. Phoenix was always great.

I never had a problem in Anaheim, I just found it a little less inviting, let's say.

Worst experiences:
1) Edmonton
2) Vancouver

Very fair.

Nothing compares to those two cities.

I was just grumpy with a fan base yelling "reff you suck" when Zary was just helped off the ice with a blown up knee.

Yes, that was pretty ugly - almost as bad as VAN fans chanting "JT Miller"

And to be clear, I was agreeing with your assessment of the Honda Center, not disagreeing with it.
