That was another ugly period. If not for the PP I don't think we have more than a handful of scoring chances.

For god’s sake. Pvr’ed the game because I couldn’t watch until now. I chose sportsnet
West for some ******* reason, thinking it should show the full flames game,
Seeing as we are in Calgary. But no, had to ffwd through the rest of the No Goods love fest. Joined the flames game with 5 min left in the first. **** you sportsnet.

This would be a really good time to up our game a few notches.

[direwolf]

Hopefully the boys will wake up for the 3rd. Need a big push to close this out.

[btimbit]

Alright, the good news is we're due for a good period!

[GioforPM]

When did the Flames fly out to Vancouver? Yesterday or today?

I’m honestly shocked at how consistently awful he’s been all year.

The future captain of this team.

For everyone complaining about that play ending up 4-on-4, Mangiapane was getting the original penalty so we should be thankful.

Flames went from playing their best overall game 2 days ago against Winnipeg to playing two of their worst periods tonight against Vancouver.

The Canucks aren't necessarily getting chance after chance, but they're still getting a lot more than the Flames, who haven't been able to generate anything.

That penalty on Mangi...I mean how are you even supposed to defend these days? Knock the puck off a guys stick and its a penalty?

Yep.

An ugly 5v5 game (again).

Just win the 3rd period. Win the period, win the game...and then come back better on Saturday.

I'm really enjoying watching this game.
This 4 game series is going to be great.
Flames are sleepwalking at times, but they know that they are in control if they play their game well. Canucks are desperate. Playing as well as I've seen them this season.

I expect they emotions will raise the level in the 3rd.

Sarah Nurse needs to up her energy level on her commentary.

That was Puljujarvi's fault. He got the covid and delayed the game an hour. Missed the first chunk as well.

[dieHARDflameZ]

This commentary is dreadful.

[transplant99]

Man did Lucic get jocked by Pettersen on that goal...lol.

[Bonded]

Man, squeaking by in this game

[Mathgod]

Meh, I'd rather be outplayed but have all the bounces go my way than the alternative...
