Flames should be playing defense, not hoping for 10 bell saves.

Weak call

Backlund still can't hit the broad side of a barn.

Wolf is still a rookie in the NHL. I think they're bringing him along just fine and managing his workload appropriately.

Fans are dead without the Canuck fans to push them.

You can tell from Vladar’s body language that he is not in his sharpest form right now.

Calgary sat back for the third period - that’s what caused the goals. Not the goalie.

Going to blame it on an injury again and have off-season surgery.

They stayed with those for a few years until they revealed a new 3rd that had all the vertical sides that everyone hated from Reebok, with orange!! The whole orange era was complete garbage. Hell even when they released their reverse retro they did a curved name bar like on the original wild wing jerseys.. but it didn't adhere to NHL policy so they switched to a modern straight name plate. Like they couldn't work with the leauge on this?

Just pure garbage, for decades.

There’s the one guy on the defensive side bottom right on camera trying to start the waive. Not all hero’s wear capes.. this one wearing definitely a few pints.

Utah’s speed creates lots of trouble for the defencemen. Need to bump them off the puck instead of backing up letting them to fly by every time

What bar? You asked why we wear them and I gave you an answer. They're not your taste then fine but they're popular and sell that's why we wear them.
