The Wild really should start thinking about resting Dubnyk a little bit given they have put them in a position that they only need to go .500 from now on in to make the playoffs. That said I don't care how hot he has been he's still Devan Dubnyk and the Flames have scored on him in the past and there's no excuse for not being able to score on him tonight.
They looked like they had heavy legs against the Stars so I hope they have more jump tonight as a loss in regulation means they can only lose two more games or they are out.

Are you making excuses for them losing already? Dubnyk isn't Patrick Roy. They may be hot but the Flames can still beat them but they are going to have to play a lot better than they played on the home stand.
Good for Ferland

Just for reference: The Flames beat the Arizona Coyotes back in late November with Dubnyk in net 3-0. Dubnyk had a .897 Sv% in that game, and that's with him playing a pretty good game. I know it's Arizona, but it does show that the Flames have had success against him.
Also, Ramo had a shutout in that game. Repeating the past tonight?

I didn't say the Flames are losing. But give Dubnyk credit, he's playing lights out with 6 competent defenseman.
I just want to preface this saying I am a HUGE Lord of the Rings & Tolkien Universe fan. There is a lot wrong with this movie, but also lots of good stuff. This speech being one of them.
Bernard Hill was excellent.

If you watch these vids before the team left yesterday (Brodie, Russell, Hartley) you get the sense that the team still has a quiet confidence and belief in themselves. They know what's at stake and there is no sense of panic - just a job to be done.
