Randorf says the Flames have missed the playoffs 7 of the last 9 seasons, which is only true if you don't count this year. You could say instead, that they're going to the playoffs for the 3rd time in 5 years. Which is significantly better than the other team in this game, who has legit missed the playoffs 12 of 13 years.

Even the homer Oiler announcers were saying it was nothing more than a normal defensive play by Gio. Oiler fans are the only idiots who think it was dirty.

Mcdavid should know the risks of charging hard like that, that is the risk. Not many teams play him physical enough. However I hate to see that, that likely is a broken tibia or fibula. Better than a ligament though. Gio played it hard, dont love the play but it was not dirty. Like the reactions of all players. But really we are lucky Smith is not hurt either

Yea, they clearly look like they're mailing it in at this point. Just trying to get through the rest of the game without any injuries or needless shenanigans.

Yeah playing not to get hurt vs playing to win look pretty different. Most of the flames are doing the former.

Still.. a win would be nice.

Hopefully it's leg broken and not knee.
And anyone can see it was a hockey play. Yeah a trip, sort of, and call worthy enough but that's it. Oiler players see that too.
You can't go 100mph all the time.
####ty outcome
