[saskflames69]

On a positive note how friggin awesome was Monahan on those last 3 faceoffs?

Yeah just garbage non calls there. Should have been 6 on 3. Calgary got boned.

Honestly, I was laughing at the end of the game. I honestly didn't care who won the game after that incredible push.

The Flames can hang around with any team in the league it seems and that's all I care about right now.

Frustrating game but for the most part not because of the flames play. Bad bounces, Niemi, questionable reffing, etc. Oh well on to the next one

[direwolf]

The only two reasons why the Flames lost:

1. Niemi.
2. Our inability to clear the puck out of our zone.

Other than that, I thought they played great. Fantastic effort late in the 3rd to try and tie it. No quit in this team whatsoever, and I love that. Ya can't win 'em all.

There was once a goalie who SJ had. He stole us many wins.

[Scoutski]

Good game, nice and tight and even though we lost we were in it to the last second. I definitely take solace in the fact that Marleau and Thornton are 35 and will slowly become irrelevant in the next few years.

A loss like this will hurt and may raise the energy level even more in the next game.

[GioforPM]

Coulda won it with more goals for the first period dominance. Coulda won it with better play in the second - no crappy giveaways. Coulda won it in the third but Niemi was too solid.

On to the next game.

I don't like to call a fix...but my god what a terrible stretch of reffing at the end of the game

the loudness of the boos was unreal

[Nammer403]

Terrible reffing .
On to the next!

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Niemi was really, really good. That save on Johnny when he stuck out his left pad was unreal.

[FlamesNation23]

Monohan is so damn clutch. When was the last time we had a centerman who could win crucial draws at the end of the game like that? I honestly cant even remember.

[Kidder]

With like 35 seconds left did Monahan have an open net and shoot it to the wrong side right into Niemi?

Regardless that was one hell of a final shift by him. Winning 3 straight face offs against one of the best.

Great effort!

[djsFlames]

Incompetent reffing always plays a factor in a handful of games a season.

That entire last minute should've been spent in the SJ zone with a multiple man advantage.

[bob-loblaw]

We lost. The tank is on for McDavid.

[GioforPM]

One loss in a row. Treliving press conference tomorrow at 9.

[JetsFlamesFan]

The Sharks are who we thought they were...god, I can't wait to say that again after they get eliminated from the playoffs

[Samiz]

The effort was there, but too many mistakes were made in our own zone. As much as I love the guy, I would've certainly preferred to have Baertschi or Bollig in place of McGrattan.
