[GT] Flames @ Rangers. Welcome to the NHL Mr. Poirier!

[TheDebaser]

This is tense, but I'm loving this brand of hockey.

[Two Fivenagame]

0-0 going into the 3rd.
Calgary looks good. Time for some 3rd period magic amiright?

[direwolf]

Ramo has been excellent tonight. Let's hope the boys can get a win for him.

[Obsidian]

Man, Ramo has glimpses of a real goaltender but his starts and play has been so choppy.

It would be really great to see him have a stretch here like he had on that one road trip where he got the back to back goose eggs.

[Jables16]

Against a hot team like the Rangers, at the start of a big road trip like this I'm sure the Flames are happy to go into their best period tied, should be a great third.

[indes]

Didn't think that was a very good second. I hope they bring it in the third!

[combustiblefuel]

Not the outcome I was expecting so far. Great game so far.

Edmonton up 2-1 against Minny in the 1st.

[jayswin]

Fortunately or unfortunately, this has a "next goal wins" feeling at this point.

Positive prediction: Flames continue their strong end to the second, Monahan scores, flames keep rolling, Jooris scores, Flames win 2 - 0.

Negative prediction: Poor officiating catches up to the Flames. A call that would be acceptable in a normal game feels cheap due to the missed calls on the Rangers and ends up in our net, Rangers win 1 - 0.

[AcGold]

Flames will win. I Boblieve.

[Moneyhands23]

Weird game. Home ice sure seems like an advantage in New York

Give it another 40 minutes.

Oilers up 2-1. Woo Woo! So far doing us a favour and ruining their season by being successful

They'll blow the lead and lose. Just wait for it

I think his starts have been overstated. That Bruins game, I thought was more of a mercy/tempo change goal switch. Those were not soft goals he let in.

[Dion]

We have em right where we want em!

I expect the Flames to come out and put the pressure to the Rangers. All we need is one goal and Ramo's continued soild play between the pipes.

[Yamer]

This Hyundai commercial has passed the point of irritating.

The Wild have had an easy schedule the last couple of games, including tonight. Would be nice to see them blow a game that they should easily win.

I'm dreading the negative prediction myself.

I will give praise to Edmonton this one night, or at least refrain from trash talk if they can actually do everyone in the playoff race a solid.
