[GT] Go Flames Go! Booo Vancouver Booo!

[chedder]

Johnson so calm looking. Regardless of outcome, I hope he gets the next start

[Street Pharmacist]

That might be the most obvious "Calgary" penalty ever

[direwolf]

Horsecrap penalty.

[shogged]

johnson looks so comfortable

[calgaryblood]

These refs are a joke. Honestly bush league.

[bubbsy]

Nhl refrees are dumb or the rules just ambiguous

[dammage79]

Chad Johnson: The real PK unit.

[Flashpoint]

I no longer am worried about Elliot.

Especially since Chad Johnson grew up a Flames fan.

[btimbit]

Is Chaisson really that scary?

Clean hit, for sure, but when you look at what actually drew the penalty? Chaisson literally just skates after him and says something, then Dorsett crosschecks Chaisson and we get the only penalty.

He literally just got a penalty at a crucial game for words. If that's not the pussification of hockey I don't know what is.

Johnson coming up big

[PeteMoss]

Things I never thought would happen - actually thinking the Flames should consider re-signing Engelland.

[browna]

So you can't talk to someone after the whistle? Ok then. And yes, Brodie has looked below average preseason and so far this season as I've said a couple times already.

[GirlySports]

nice stick Gio!

[-TC-]

That's better Gio

[GioforPM]

Great kill. Johnson great. Gio was really good.

[Yamer]

Gio has been amazing all night.

[bubbsy]

Engelland is a heart attack waiting to happen

[calgaryblood]

Gio playing great aside from his icings. Liked his game.

I missed Hrudey's comments, was it about reffing? Not to be a conspiracy nut, but I did wonder if the Flames would not get the benefit of any calls this year due to the Wideman situation.
