Iggy should slap Eakin around like a red-headed step child

Sure he can be blamed. Guy has been pasted to the goal line the whole night. Awfully tough to stop the puck when you are unwilling to be remotely aggressive.

Hudler goes golfing, fore!

And he was very slow on picking up that play...looked confused that the shot even came.

For real? Kiprusoff has been making point blank saves for 10 years now...not that Irving should be expected to play to Kippers level, but he has to be better than this.

Ferraro was so hoping Dallas was going to steamrole the Flames.

Who would have thought that Commodore would have been better to keep over Warrener.

I think any goaltender in Calgary not named Kipper is going to get a rough ride. Irving has let in a few stinkers but Kipper has more this season. I can't fault Irving for that last goal but then again I don't have an agenda. Either way goaltending does have to improve and I expect we will see MacDonald next game.

Without question IMO.

I think so....just want to see what the Flames have there. I'd like the team to have a steady dependable veteran backup again.

WTF? Puck was behind the net and passed out front did you really expect him to be at the top of the crease waiting?

Eakin was sitting on the hash marks and the play came from directly behind the net. Very few goalies make that save and even fewer make it on purpose

Why is Iggy on a line with Blair Jones?

How about making any saves on any remotely challenging shots? He hasn't made one big stop. One big save and simply making routine saves and this is a 6-2 game.
