They're always losers no matter the score

The shining light is that we aren't being embarrassed, in year 2 of the rebuild.

If the ducks played this game against the grease it might be 5 or 6 goals against at this point.

I don't think the Ducks are outplaying the Flames as much as the Flames are outplaying themselves. They aren't themselves tonight.. Thinking too much?

[dino7c]

Come on Francis! Hiller needs to be better?

yep all him

[OzSome]

Both Anaheim's goal are actually both tipped in. Lucky..

[shogged]

We may have only a handful of shots, but we've held the ducks to slightly less than average as well. Just need to find a way to get around those big bodies in the third and we still have a chance

[timbit]

Oh Eric...

Such a buffoon.

Hiller had zero chance on either goal.

Yea, I'm not mad either. Just frustrated. The Ducks will do that to you when they're on their game. Speed-wise the Flames can skate with these guys. But you can really see the difference between the two teams when it comes to size and skill. We've been winning lately, but we've also been playing a lot of Eastern teams. We knew the big test for this team would be against the powerhouses in the West. And you're really seeing the difference tonight between a young rebuilding team and a Stanley Cup contender. We've still got a ways to go before we're in the same class. We'll get there...and I think it'll be sooner than a lot of people think.

Good early pp, let's see some good puck movement

[OzSome]

Here we go.. it is the break that we need..power play!!

[1stLand]

Anaheim has alot of Italians on their team.
Cogliano
Palmeiri
Bonino

[1stLand]

Glencross is terrible!!!!

[4oh3]

Hit the net.

[JurassicTunga12]

[Machiavelli]

Can't miss those shots...

[direwolf]

Please, for the love of all things good and pure, HIT THE NET.

[AcGold]

Glencross killed 3 plays there?

Give credit to Cogliano's hustle there. It hit his stick.

Just doesn't seem like their night. Lots of time to go, but it would be nice to get one soon to make a game out of it.
