Unreal.

This topic was all over Twitter. They are taking cues from writers who just tweet.

I'm not a big markstrom fan, but hard to blame him on much there. Flames just played dumb dumb over aggressive hockey allowing the oilers back in this.

They've abandoned the one thing that made them successful, structure. They don't deserve better in the game or the series.

Time to put Andersson or Hanifin in front of Smith on the PP so they can screen the right goalie for a change

Get ready for firewagon hockey - last shot wins

Calgary up 5-1. Oilers tie it. Flames pull it out in the third.

Repeat 3rd period performance? I hope…

He was bad vs Dallas as well. Incredibly frustrating that series as well.

probably not...considering the late 1st round pick will likely be worse than TT if you look at probability.

Huge missed call on the Nurse goal. McDavid high sticks and cuts Hanifin in front of Calgary's net as Draisaitl carries the puck behind the net. Coleman sees Hanifin down on ice so he leaves his point to support. Draisaitl slides it to nurse for the one timer and Hanifin instead of covering McDavid at the side of the net is stuck in front screening Markstrom.

So the high stick led to the screen and the missed coverage by Coleman. And Hanifin is stuck with a minus and a cut lip.

The absolute biggest let down is Markstrom becoming early Forida Panther Markstrom at the worst time conceivable. And it isn't even close.

I think the fact that people are arguing about which defenseman is playing the worst.... shows maybe we have a problem back there when facing a really fast team. Not exactly news, but it's kinda showing here.

[agulati]

Need to win the next twenty minutes. Score more than the Oilers. That’s it

[WhiteTiger]

Oh, nice. The PlayOn street hockey tourney is back? Had some great fun there with some buds for a couple years.

They had to do it in front of Markstrom to ensure it’ll work vs smith. Experts now.

[Jagermeister]

Going into the 3rd period at home tied once felt like it was a game the Flames would usually find a way to win... I've completely lost that confidence watching this team play over the last 5 games.

Draisatl should have been called for a crosscheck on backlund before the oilers 4th goal.

He needs to go. Biggest trade value.

Not really, its almost all correctable mistakes

pinching at the wrong times and bad passes/turnovers mostly

That panel was like a post-game following an Oilers win.

Game is tied. Go flames go!
