So the tv broadcast now works on my phone via GameCentre but it won't work on Chromecast.

Zero concern for Smith getting bowled but whatever isles players on the ice from losing balance is having troubles. Then the "obvious" off side

I will say the first line, featuring Monny

4 straight periods of shutout hockey for Lehner. Crazy puck pressure by the Isles is going to require an in-game adjustment by the Flames to push pucks deep.

[HotHotHeat]

Just spent the first period looking for gamecentre support, what a terrible experience. Still no stream.

[Haplo]

First line did have one of their best shifts since the All star break midway through the first. Lehner made a huge save.

But....

Johnny and that line looking very frustrated with one another....bad sign.

And collectively how many shots at net went wide or high?

Good grief.

I think a lot of that is what the Islanders allow. They are extremely good defensively. Nothing to get too upset over.

Agree that the top line hasn't been great lately but that seam pass from Gaudreau to Hanifin was amazing and it's only because Lehner made a huge save that it isn't 1-0 Flames right now.

This is playoff hockey.

Despite low shot counts, thought it was a great first period

There was a couple good looks there that period

Flames are playing on the boards a lot. Need to put some bodies to the middle. Czarnik had that figured outaty and look at all the goals.
Tkachuk and Monahan play behind the goal line too much. Just nothing happening for the top guys.

Man I love Travis Hamonic.

I hope not. The Flames top 6 forwards will need to be a lot better if an extended run is expected.

[Jore]

funny contrast of styles so far. top line needs to come thru

This happened to me last season. It never got resolved. Rogers told me it was a TELUS problem. Then it was an nhl problem. Never their problem. Led to me cancelling the service.

If you want to love him more watch the video he did with Elliott Friedman about losing his father at a young age. Sorry don't have the link.

Saw that. Incredible person with a really inspiring story and a ton of talent, couldn't be happier that he's a Calgary Flame.

Depth is looking good but I'd really like to get another look at Quine.

He and Dube. Heck, Lazar too. Glad this team has so much depth up front, it's really great.
