Flames Calgary Flames at Seattle Kraken 8:00pm TV: SN/1, RS1, ROOT, CITV - RADIO SN960

































Say What - 'Guys Are Excited, Ready To Go'

Backlund on the mood in the dressing room:

"Today, guys were upbeat, I felt like there was more energy and positivity in the room. Yesterday, coming off a loss, the mood was still good but guys were a little more upset. Today, you can feel it. Guys are excited, ready to go, we want to get back on the winning side of things."

Flames take 6-game losing streak into matchup with the Kraken

Saturday's game is the first time these teams square off this season.

TOP PERFORMERS: Vince Dunn has two goals and seven assists for the Kraken. Jared McCann has scored five goals and added three assists over the last 10 games.

Elias Lindholm has two goals and six assists for the Flames. Andrew Mangiapane has scored four goals with three assists over the last 10 games.

The good, bad and ugly of the Calgary Flames: Games 6-10

We’re back with another good, bad and ugly of the Calgary Flames. Today we are looking at their last five games. It was one of, if not the worst stretch of games I have ever seen from the Flames in my time watching them. They lost every game, couldn’t score, and were boring to watch.
Just take a look at their numbers during that time.
Record: 0-5-0
Outscored 21-8
Outscored 4.2-1.6 per game.
Jonathan Huberdeau: 0 Goals. 1 Assist. Minus-9

The Kraken play a 4 line balls to the wall high tempo game which could stifle the Flames ability to break out of their zone cleanly so I’m looking forward to which Flames D can make the good outlet passes under pressure and which forwards can rush the puck through the neutral zone to gain the blueline. If breakout passes prove difficult I hope to see the D beat the forecheck and lead rushes themselves. I’m hoping the Andersson Weegar pairing flourishes together and turn into an elite force that can turn the tide for the Flames to confidently win games.

Agreed. Last game was actually entertaining at points, and the crowd actually got into it a bit in the third.

I'm surprised on the PP unit switch, it was looking a bit better?

Just entertaining the fans with another game. Baby steps to the overall first pick.

Staple Huberdude to the bench would be a bonus.

go Flames Go!

No good reason to start winning now. 2 big points for the Kraken to make life harder for the greasers!

Zary pots two, both on end-to-end rushes since nobody else can separate themselves from whoever is defending them. Popsicle get ejected for losing a fight, then, when the refs pull them apart, immediately starting another fight with another player. Huby gets benched the entire 3rd. Seattle wins 3-2 in a shootout. Flames get a point.

Cheering for a good game from our UFAs. Need to increase their trade value.

Hopefully Zary continues where he left off. He would be a good boost to PP1 if he keeps this up.

Cheapest tickets are $102 each on Gametime.

A bit rich for me at the moment.

Maybe the November 20 game will be a bit cheaper since it's a Monday.

I'm one of the rare fans that's hoping for a win.

Huberdeau, Kadri, Lindholm. Those are the 3 that are either going to get this team to the playoffs or a high draft pick. So far all 3 have been extremely underwhelming. Hope tonight they start to figure it out.

In tough tonight as the Flames struggle against fast, quick teams. Seattle must be pretty hungry for a win as much as the Flames are.

Need to put a consistent effort for 3 periods, don’t care as much about the score.

That 2nd period against the Stars sunk the Flames, so let’s play 3!

If the Flames lose in regulation tonight, they would be 7 points out of a playoff spot, after 11 games. That is not easy to do (SJS notwithstanding)

Hoping for a fun game from Pospisil. Injuries have kept him down for a while but I think he can be a guy that plays a couple hundred games.
