It's also ok to be frustrated that we are not taking advantage of our dominance in the game

It's also ok to be concerned that our pp is pathetic and it's also ok not to be comfortable with a 1-0 lead

Or they are actually scared of the Flames lineup which would be justified if you didn't follow the team and know of the recent PP struggles

Cameron sucks but the team plays great. Keeping doing this and we can retire Camermon's number in the dome

Best effort Francis? Nope, the Tampa game was by far this teams best game.

Hopefully we come out and get an early goal.
Played too good to let them back into it.

Hopefully we play like this tomorrow night too and go into the all Star break on a high

Why do they always close in so much on Francis' ugly mug?

The Flames are controlling and both goalies are playing so well. This period will be great! This is a fun game. As a fan I'm entertained. I'll predict a 3-1 win with an empty netter.

This thread could use some bounce to get rid of that annoying static cling.

Recent? The powerplay has been dog#### pretty much all season.

I'm seriously nervous about a 1 goal lead heading into the 3rd, fellas...

Point is they're playing a strong game. They're not scrambling desperately while LA gets zone time.

But yeah, you got with me the eye roll.

Flames are certainly in control of this game, but it just takes one stupid hop of a puck or a bad bounce for the Kings to get back into it (and take all the wind out of the Flames sails in the process).

Since Versteeg went down, actually, but I can edit for clarity if you want.
