Play like they have since the acquisition of Stone and we win this game.

4-2 Flames with empty net goal

This is gonna be a tough game. Islanders are barely clinging to the final wildcard spot in the east and they're gonna be desperate. Also, afternoon games are generally pretty sloppy with lots of defensive mistakes and odd-man rushes. Add it all up and it smells like a loss. I hope I'm wrong.

Pumped for this one! Just got back from a short trip to Hong Kong to celebrate my grandma's 100th bday so I could be back to bring my 10 month old boy to his first ever flames game... dudes been waiting his whole life for today!
Flames win 10-0!

I'm definitely in the nervous group about this one... afternoon games are always a concern, and the Islanders do seem to be kryptonite for the Flames.

Hopefully they can overcome.

I emailed in sick from work this morning.

Didn't realize it was an afternoon game. Go Flames Go!

I swear I'm really sick.

I have a good feeling about this one. The game against the Red Wings was almost like a loss with the way the Flames let it slip. That should be enough of a wake up call. My prediction is a 4-1 win with goals by Gaudreau, Giordano, Brouwer, and Frolik.

We usually have trouble containing Tavares. Hopefully our recent upgrade on defence will make the difference today.

#NYIslanders are 0-4 this season under ref Graham Skilliter: http://scoutingtherefs.com/2017/03/1...linesmen-3517/

We can hope...and cheer Flames on!
That's great and all but last time I checked, Skilliter is still an official, and Wideman is still a Flame. You can do the math.

Just played this matchup in NHL 17.

Islanders win 6-2

Here's the good news, the rosters were before the deadline. Wideman was directly responsible for 5 against.

LOL that was my thinking.

Curse of Skilliter and the Islanders Meets The Wideman Effect.

Reads like the title of a Scooby-Doo Mystery

Top of the 9th, one out, Jays down by one.

This is gonna go long, and of course Shaw Freerange doesn't have SNF as an option

Hoping for a good game. Last tickets from my share of seasons tonight. If you would've told me that we'd still be in a playoff spot I'd be quite happy so lets keep it going.
We know!

Anyways have fun at the game tonight

I'm hoping that's a case of "out of sight - out of mind".

I like how loose the Flames have been - they're having fun on this run, so as long as they keep tight on the ice, we should be fine.

Flames score 1st, and lose, making for a strange end to the win streak.
