Backlund, Frolik, Tkachuk have gone 6 straight periods without an offensive start. 8 points combined, well up over 50% shot rate. #Flames
This sounds like an absolutely nutty stat.

Let's see, is it possible to lose to two teams in a row who are coming off of back to backs?
Calgary other than Gaudreau is as fiesty and nasty as they come. Look for them to take runs at everybody since the refs are turning a blind eye to intimidation which must make Brian Burke very happy.
If we don't push back tonight, it will be over early. Ferland and Thornton could see a dust up.
Two Points Out
Quote:
Need these 2 points badly.
The race is so close that can't really afford losing streaks.
Someone score a hattrick tonight.
Quote:
Must win game tonight.
Let’s go Cats!!
Quote:
ust like every other game from now on
Quote:
If they keep up the good work from the past couple of weeks, and refs will blow the whistle when needed, the [cats] should win this
Quote:
We need to get the two points to keep pace. Leads and Isles play tomorrow and if we lose and they both win we are 4 points back with 22 games left.
Get two points
Quote:
Starting now in the next 5 games we will find out if the recent success was just an artificial bump of energy due to getting players back and scheduling inirmalities or if it was the real deal.. Calgary isn't good.. gmhuge game for us that we should win coming off a loss at home with a day break..no reason to lose this
We’ve Been Expecting You
Quote:
Eyes on J Gaudreau. He has been scoring vs the Cats since day 1
Quote:
Johny Hockey is gonna score despite being on a cold streak.
Quote:
Not before the entire broadcast team makes a point to discuss his cold streak and he hasn't scored in x amount of games. Probably will happen when we are tied, 10 mins left in the third, only to see him score before they finish the jinx haha
Quote:
that’s on the forwards – all five guys down around the goal line – points too open
cover your man
Quote:
Cats look like they have the mumps.
Quote:
Panthers have trouble with the Alberta teams
Quote:
might as well be. Cats have lost three to EDM and CAL already.
Quote:
Petrovic gets beat on the play, and Bennett continues his dominance against the Cats.
Quote:
Knew I should've taken Bennett in the points game. He owns us.
Quote:
Again.. just stand in front of our net
Quote:
That was some EA Sports defense.
Quote:
And that's what happens when you don't clear rebounds
Quote:
Breakaway against what a shock
Quote:
falling apart here
Quote:
Times 2 holy ****
Quote:
I wish we had a dman that played the body on the rush.. that would be epic
Quote:
Lu hasn't looked like LU in a while....
Quote:
OMG we suck so badly defensively. Defense and Luongo are horrible. When was the last time Luongo gave up less then 2-3 goals? Last year?
Aint gonna make the playoffs with this defense / this Luongo
Quote:
Quote:
It was a contact with Lu, but still, he doesn’t look sharp
Quote:
He’s been absolutely horrible against Calgary lately. They must have something on him. I have no idea what Rowe was thinking putting him in both games this year.
Quote:
Oh no....we suck again!
Quote:
Odd man rushes are brutal right now. But Lou isn't exactly helping settle down the team. First goal, poor rebound control after a shot to the chest... 3rd goal, no words....
Brouwer makes it 4-2
Quote:
Man **** the Flames. I hate that team so much.
Quote:
jeez
another one
Quote:
Give it up. D is what it is. Time to move on
Quote:
Lu hasn’t done squat today
Quote:
I think Lu forgot his contact lenses
Quote:
See like that.
That was ****ing pathetic
Quote:
You expect us to score the next goal but you also expect Flames to score again right after that on a defensive breakdown with everyone standing pat
Quote:
lead boots ekblad running down to the flames goal line with nothing but open ice behind him no one covering for him and he takes a slapshot in traffic where a bad bounce and it’s a breakaway, mathenson took two cruises behind the flames goal the shift before that, and again just one guy back, it’s absolutely maddening
Quote:
The $7.5 million dollar man making his presence known.
Quote:
I'm glad we got to hear Rowe talk about how everyone loves each other in the locker room and see those buddy shots in the pre-game video.
Also saying how this team obviously will make the playoffs.
Quote:
The difference was goaltending tonight. Neither team was good defensively. We had plenty of prime scoring chances but their goalie was much better than ours.
Overpassing in offensive zone hurt too.
Cali Panthers Fan being very happy

Quote:
Calgary with another 2 quick goals and up 2-1. I have a feeling Hanzal could wind up a Flame because of Treliving's past connections to the Coyotes. If they get him, they'll likely overtake either the Oilers or Ducks in the division. They're getting hot at the right time and Elliott can suddenly stop pucks again (even though Johnson is in net tonight).
Quote:
**** off Calgary. Gonna be a huge waste of a playoff spot if they make it
Quote:
Doesn't Calgary usually destroy Luongo?
Quote:
Yup.
3-1
Quote:
If Calgary wins and we lose Sunday, that 10 point lead we had over the Flames will be down to 4.

Should Backlund be considered for Selke at the rate he's going?
I think he's definitely worth a shout. Especially if we get in to the playoffs.
He absolutely should be but Mikko Koivu and Granlund have more points and are plus 30. I know plus/minus isn't much of a state but I think it's one of theirs to lose.
