No way we through a rookie goalie under the bus. Makes no sense to bring up Gillies!

Now imagine it at full speed, when you have a split second to react to a shot you didn't even see leave the stick, and came through one of your own players.

A little perspective and pragmatic thinking could seriously reduce the knee jerk reactions and vitriol on CP.
Ok. Let's say you're right. Then he should've followed the puck better. Decent goalies will have that. Full stop

Flames continue to try and get too cute with the puck and don't get a shot on goal.

That was a beautiful set of saves. Why can't our goalie do that?

That's on Jooris. Johnny & Sam couldn't do much with that space.

I think you love ortio. You are right about Russell, and Ortio seeing the shot.

Gaudreau - Bennett - Jooris
Hudler - Monahan - Colborne

Both of those lines have looked great.

The other 6 forwards are hot garbage.

I like exciting games, don't get me wrong. But I wish we'd stop having to play river hockey each night just to have a chance. Goalies have all been less than .900%, so defence aside, that still isn't good enough.
