Flames are the team that played last night, plus we played against both of Edm's goalies. I wonder which excuse is gonna come outta the salt mines tonight?

I haven't read through the post-game thread yet but hopefully someone got a gif of that Lucic strut into the Saddledome? Nice suit buddy, you look gangsta.
Holy crap-a-rino! I got to go to the game tonight and I don't know where to begin.
Flames had 9 even strength goals. Nine! 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9! Has that happened beofre? I mean the league has been around a while but 9 at ES has to be extremely rare if not unique.
Also, if the Flames ddin't win, I don't think the refs make it out of the parking lot.
First period, tire fire! Lucky to get out 3-2. Second period: Unfettered rage at the officiating. A rollercoaster.
Third period, "we want ten!" and the greasy oilers' fans shuffle out with 5:00 min to go.
A kid got sick and had to be tended to by the medics. A guy fell down the stairs and saved his beers, there were two fights on the way out. A classic tilt between Flames and Oilers hockey bros, and another hair-pulling on the grass 5-7 people brawl involving women, and I swear to god, their children.
It was the most "Hockey" hockey game I have seen in hundreds.
5 goals against is what happens when the Flames play poor defensively and have bad goaltending. Nine goals against is what happens when the Oilers play their regular defence and have bad goaltending.
Koskinen gets the hook, Ol' Stinkeye gets lit up. Draisaitl had a hattrick but you'd barely remember. except he was also -4! Same as McDingle####. Gaudreau 5 points, Chucky 4, Backlund 3, Tanev 3, Lindholm 2, Hanifin 2a and 500th game, and +5/.
This game was one for the ages! Bronze the Tape!
Go Flames Go!
edit: hilarious: overheard from an Oilers fan on the way out: "Where was Kassian tonight?!" Yeah, that was difference....Kassian

I am proud to brag that I have started the first "We Want 10!" chant at the Dome tonight. Honest truth!

"A lot of people are talking... imagining you guys playing each other in the playoffs."
"Well, I would think that both of us would have to get there for that to happen."
Luckily we got in front when we did. You can tell the Flames really started to fade and hang on in the 3rd because of the back-to-back. Talk about having to white-knuckle it against the high-octane Oilers.
