Check out the stats though. Street was the only center that won over 50 percent of the draws... And that includes the two losses at the end...

I had no problem with that decision.

With even league average goaltending the Flames win this game.

McDonald is terrible.

[FlamesAllTheWay]

All part of the learning experience for most but man do we make it hard on ourselves sometimes with costly turnovers.

I don't know if it's a cold streak or teams are keying in on him or what but Glencross needs to start going.

Despite the result you have to love the effort and work ethic of the team as a whole. Most shots against Anaheim has given up so far this season.

[calumniate]

Love and hate teemu! Dislike Lovegoy highly. How does he pull that crap and get away with it? Shanahan sucks.

[skudr248]

for the love of god, PLEASE GET RID OF THAT BOTTOM PAIRING D....it is absolutely horrid to watch those beer league players anymore. THEY SUCK

[theg69]

Colbourne 2 wins and 8 losses
Backlund 10 and 17
Street 10 and 9
Monahan 5 and 6
Glencross 2 and 4

Tough loss as they played pretty well overall. Easily Colbourne's best game of the season. Nice to see him start using his size and create a little bit of offence. Backs and Baertschi both had strong games. Glencross has to be better simple as that. San Jose should be a hell of a test for the boys. Looking forward to the game.

I think it's only fair to give Ramo another start after this. One OTL isn't enough to base judgement on IMO- especially when both have the same save %.

[Falclore]

Would like to see Ramo start next game. Thought McDonald was a shaky in the first half of the game.

[dieHARDflameZ]

On a more positive note then my previous response, I thought Baertschi, Colborne, Backlund and Hudler all looked great.

This team was fun to watch despite the loss... A lot more pushback in the third than we have seen the past couple years from Iggy and co when we were behind...

Definitely not this year.

[Enoch Root]

It's definitely time for Ramo, but I can just see it now...

SJ destroys us, like they have everybody, and Ramo is subjected to 6 or 7 goals and then doesn't see another game

[Buck Murdock]

Any word on Cammy, Stajan, Jones?

Glenny has to start shooting more for sure.

Glenny needs to piss off.

I don't feel our new identity needs a player like Glencross in any way. He shows no effort and tries high risk/high reward plays way too often without any success. I really think we should move him immediately if possible. His play this year reminds me of Rene Bourque during his final year here, complete with board-to-board line changes at a whopping 1km/h.

I wasn't annoyed with Glencross tonight until that ridiculous back pass to no-one in the last minute of the game.

[Table 5]

Not unexpected of a 19 year old, and I know he had limited minutes today, but first game where Monahan looked a little invisible (although before his goal, the NJ game wasn't as awesome either). Sven on the other hand had another solid game... his extra couple years of development starting to be more apparent.

[kyuss275]

Good effort. Best game by Colborne as a flame.
