Since really being put in place night in and night out as the 4th line centre he has been fantastic.

Wow!! This team is just so pleasant to watch. Other teams would have folded after giving two early goals but not the Flames. Bob Hartley deserves a lot of credit here. What a genius of decision in starting Karri Ramo tonight. I thought after that 4 goals he gave up (not all of them his fault) Hartley would have start Hiller instead. I am sure I am not alone in thinking Hiller will start. Kudos to Hartley too in not pulling Ramo after Ducks/Getzlaf scoring 2 goals early. Again, I don't think Ramo was at fault but maybe the second goal he got caught looking the other way but he was impressive all night. Flames played a heck of a team game in both offensively and defensively. Awesome to see Gaudreau and Stajan scoring two goals each. I thought Dennis Wideman played a heck of a game tonight. Lots of ice time and he was so focus all night. I particularly love his assist on Monahan's goal and his assist on Gaudreau's goal was a dandy as well. Wideman, Russell, Brodie and even Engelland stepped up their game ever since Gio was put on IR. I never doubted that Wideman and Russell can play lots of minutes because they've done it before early last season. I believed Wideman played over 30 minutes at one time last season. I am just loving this team but too bad we are not getting the help from the other team. Good game tonight and I am very happy.

If bouw played with half the guts Russell did he'd be a runaway Norris trophy winner. I love Russell's effort.

Amazing game yet again.

I've noticed it before and tonight it shone again. Anyone else notice real chemistry between Wideman and Johnny. Seems like Wideman is always in the right spot for getting a pass from Johnny. A couple of times this year they've connected on some real beauties.

Fun fact:

Sidney Crosby: 22 goals
Sean Monahan: 25 goals

I know Crosby is killing him in points, but still, WOW!

The Flames have trailed 2-0 in a game 24 times this season...
  1. 10/11 - L 4-1 @ STL
  2. 10/17 - L 3-2 @ CBJ
  3. 11/08 - W 6-4 @ FLA
  4. 11/18 - W 4-3 v ANA (SO)
  5. 11/20 - L 4-3 v CHI
  6. 11/22 - W 5-4 v NJD (SO)
  7. 11/25 - L 3-2 @ ANA
  8. 12/09 - L 4-1 @ TOR
  9. 12/12 - L 3-1 @ PIT
  10. 12/16 - L 5-2 v NYR
  11. 12/19 - L 2-1 v DAL
  12. 12/20 - L 3-2 v VAN (OT)
  13. 12/22 - W 4-3 @ LAK (OT)
  14. 12/31 - W 4-3 v EDM (OT)
  15. 01/02 - L 2-1 v NYI
  16. 01/21 - L 6-3 @ ANA
  17. 01/31 - W 4-2 v EDM
  18. 02/06 - L 4-0 v PIT
  19. 02/16 - W 4-3 v BOS (OT)
  20. 02/18 - L 3-2 v MIN (OT)
  21. 02/27 - L 2-1 @ NYI
  22. 03/06 - W 5-2 @ DET
  23. 03/08 - L 5-4 @ OTT (SO)
  24. 03/11 - W 6-3 v ANA

A 9-12-3 record (and the last Islanders game wasn't really a true 2-0 game since their second goal was a late empty-netter). Points in half the games where they've trailed 2-0.

Additionally, in the Chicago game on November 20, they were able to erase the 2-0 deficit, being tied at 2 after the first. Also, in the Anaheim game on November 25 and the Columbus game on October 17, both games were 3-0 after 2 and the Flames scored 2 in the third to almost complete the comeback.

If Bruce Boudreau lived in Taber, it looks like he would have had to pay some hefty fines.

The input is awesome, keep it up. But damn is that tiresome to even look at.

It doesn't look like its up on YouTube yet, but I just ripped this at least:

At 0:21 he does the move Iggy did once in a fight with Boll, where he reaches across with his one hand and pins his opponent's arms then wails away with his free hand! So good.

I'll see if I can find the Iggy one for comparison.

Edit: Here's the Iggy one.
