McDingle is running everyone's show.
Bob has to stop him. Not sure anyone else can contain him

True, but even still, the ratings are doing better than last year considering it's including a Canadian city that a has no cache in the States whatsoever. Granted, being on ABC provides better viewer coverage than being on TNT which is cable.

The Flames players have already wrapped up long vacations after the season and back on the ice practicing lol

Its been like 2 months. This is not good for NHL product. Move on already.

He is literally one of the best skaters on the ice now, compared to when he used to be competing with Monahan as one of the slowest in the league.

Kudos to him.
Now destroy the oil

he literally isn't

These last two months have been absolutely exhausting. This blows

It’s beyond ridiculous at this point

Florida needs to accept they’re playing against 2 teams

And Bob’s gotta clean up that McDavid goal nonsense. That can’t go in

I doubt it. Most Americans would say what the heck is Edmonton and Florida really has a pro hockey team?

Florida has a -1 PP in the series, its not the refs

He showed up once they got down 3-0. But no, he isn't a good skater. And he should have shown up the first half of the game.

Florida was crusing for 2 and a half games, and hanged on to win Game 3.

Game 4 they just gave up.

This game Edmonton worked hard for the win.

Florida should do much better and win the next game.

Series is rather interesting now.

While I don't disagree that McDavid has holes in his game how can you see a game like that and think that he is a one trick pony. The skill level he has is something I don't think I have seen out of any player, ever. The entire fortunes of the team are through him and he has the ability to carry a team on his back.

I understand that he is with a rival but when there are takes like these it really throws the rest of your arguments away with it.

[Paulie Walnuts]

Reinhart is invisible. What happened to the great Forsling ? Looking like the waiver wire fodder he was. Tkachuk back to being Tkachuk from Calgary. All talk but never shows up. His guarantee now looks stupid af.

What a collapse.

Yup. Panthers PP has been a weakness that's cost them two games in a row. If they scored on their first chance last game, rather than give up a shorty, we may be commenting on their parade instead today.

I never watch the cup finals unless the flames are in it. Not sure why you all do. The only relevant thing for us is the NHL lottery and draft.

Kidding? Yeah one good assist.

Garbage mistake by Bob and an empty netter

I'd rather not have Oiler fans trashing us for the next decade while we never win a playoff round, and they have a cup win

This next week is very important to us. This run needs to end.

I literally posted this minutes after game 3 ended. I’m here for the long haul, win or lose. I never lost hope and thought the oil deserved better from games 1-3.
