Giordano and Brodie haven't looked very sharp this game.

0 for 6 on face-offs in the offensive zone on the PP

This will be the hockey we will see most of the season I'm afraid. Frustrating and face palms all day.

That third goal may seal it.

Anaheim isn't doing a lot other then that, and neither are the Flames, but Calgary has to make up 2 goals now in a game where a bouncing puck and lack of Flames ability to keep control, are making this a scrambly game.
Butler on the Selanne goal?

Selanne scores
Flames PP sucks out loud
Losing in Anaheim

No matter how much the team changes, some things always stay the same.

He has learned telepathy and managed to take over T.J.Brodie's mind and made him make an awful pinch with nowhere to go.

Damn you Butler!!!

I was hoping the Anaheim curse would finally come to an end tonight, but it's not looking good. Flames not playing with enough urgency, and our PP is atrocious.

the other frustrating thing on the PP is watching the defenseman carry the puck and try to bat the fore-checker himself

HOW ABOUT PASSING THE ****ING PUCK!

I know that the 2 penaltys didn't do us any harm but still, they were 2 stupid penaltys to take, no need for them to be taken. Gonna take a massive effort in the 3rd now to tie this never mind win it. PP isn't that great (bar the shorthanded goal) for the Flames either tonight.

I start work at the same time at dissentowner. I think it's time for me to retire to my alcove.

Basing Glencross or Street on plus minus isn't really watching the game.

A lazy play by Stempniak letting Penner skate past him on goal 1, then giveaways by defenseman the end up being odd man rushes the other way on the next two, with forwards nowhere near the puck or to blame, is pretty unfair to be pinning anything on them.
