A few thoughts about the game:

Ramo struggled, hard to fault him on the first goal but that Krug goal was weak. Hiller was very good in relief.

Brodie was making some not-so-smart decisions with the puck. Made up for it with the OT goal but I didn't think he played well.

Probably Gaurdreau's worst game of the year, but still managed a point which is nice.

Monahan with a solid 2 point night. That kid just gets better and better.

Giordano with a quiet 3 point night. If that guy doesn't win the Norris this year that's a joke.

Jooris' backcheck in OT was awesome, probably saved the game.

Thought Byron had a good game, it was nice to see him get rewarded with some 1st line minutes when Johnny was struggling.

Love Bouma.

Great comeback.

You missed Jones all together. He has been playing great. Is this a case of a great team making the individuals better?

D. Jones is contributing beyond what I would have ever expected.

Did we not see Lance Bouma of all people pulling some Gaudreau moves. Nice to see Hudler amp it up even more and Gio get a well deserved goal

That was deliciously great. It never really occured to me just how infuriating our great season would be for all our rivals. Loving the hate.

Funny part is it wasn't luck or choking, it was simply..."the third period Flames"...who dominate any and every opponent in the final 20 minutes, regardless of how the game is going to that point. You can't stop them. You can merely just sit back and watch in awe.

Okay except for that OT goal, that was some happy gilmour s###. BUT we would've slayed them in the shootout anyways.

I think Gaudreau needs to sit a game or two on the long road trip coming up. He's great but he's played more game than he's ever played before.

Just amazing how delicious their tears are. They deserve every bit of pain the hockey gods are inflicting on them.
Sundeep Malhi was the best Oilers troll of all time.

Loved the business-like response from hudler and monahan on the 2nd goal... No big celly - just a nod to each other and back to the bench. Two more goals to get the two points. Meanwhile, in the oiler game, yakupov mocks the crowd on his second goal celebration and the oilers end up deservedly losing that game.

I'm sure it's been mentioned, but I'll say it anyways...

After that icing call, Hartley called a timeout. Monahan won the faceoff against one of the best (Krejci).
Monahan is really impressive. That was a really huge play that sometimes goes unnoticed.

Haven't heard a post game call in show like this in a while. The fans are utterly content with the team this year and prepared to sit back and watch. Great to hear to positivity surrounding the team from the fans.

What would be fun to do is if we could some how dig up a post game show from the 1998 or 1999 timeframe, during the darkest of the dark years, to compare.

I think Johnny is looking ahead to the Philly, NJ, NYI, NYR games and needs to re-focus.

Hartley bumped him down a line. That should help.

No Chara should help as well.

I'm now nicknaming Glencross' stick The Hospice. Where offensive plays go to die.

He should maybe take some cues from Jones on how to still contribute with limited skill.

Loving this team, probably the best part about last 10 game stretch is that you could argue that Jones, Bouma or Raymond have been our best forwards. Not saying they def have been but you can at least throw them into the discussion these days along with Hudz, Mony, Gaudz and Backs. love this team right now!

He has the same number of points as Bergeron, and is on pace for a 54-55 point season. Not far off from being the 60 point, strong two-way guy expected from most top line centres today, in just his second season. That's impressive.

Ridiculous.

He's a point a game, top line player for us.

Hartley said it tonight, Johnny didn't have his best game but they put Byron up there for a few shifts to get their feet moving. They put Johnny back because he can create a goal at any moment and sure enough he assisted on one.

Complete over reaction to suggest he needs to sit out an entire game.

He's a catalyst out there and we're at a critical juncture in the season.
