Whoo 10 in a row! I hope this isn't all a dream.

What a goal by Gaudreau and a sick shootout move by Versteeg. Not sure how the Crosby goal counted but probably shouldn't be surprised.

I was actually quite impressed with both Sheary and Guentzel. I think they play with confidence knowing Crosby is there

Shoutout to all the guys who managed to finish the game before their wife/girlfriend could switch to the bachelor finale.

Just got back home from my 11pm hockey game and caught up on the rest of the PGT.

Holy balls what a game, what a streak, and what a team!

I thought Brouwer had a strong defensive game, making some key steals (off Malkin late I can remember) and was also great on the OT PK.

Being a Flames fan is a lot of fun right now!

Look at that, a NHL goalie who can stop pucks in the shootout, I wish we had one of those.
Talk about ungrateful. Talbot is half the reason the Oilers aren't competing to win the draft lottery again.

97.1% chance we'll make the playoffs. So I'm saying there's a chance...

Absolutely clutch defenseman. Would rather have him over Wideman in the lineup.

Props to this team, the coach. Was great to be in attendance tonight.

I noticed the Pens were caught on a lot of icings and sneaked players out tonight. Penalty calling was one sided tonight as well.

Love the resiliency of the team... when they are down or pressed, they weather the storm... wait for a moment and really go for it.

Flames had a couple solid chances in the first two which may have put the game out of reach earlier but MAF played very well. Also, Sheary was a thorn all night. Malkin was in beast mode... Crosby was Crosbian.

However, Flames were battling, played smart hockey and are playoff ready. I am going to eat crow on criticisms of goaltending and coaching... but we all have to admit, it's been a very up and down ride this season. But in the name of coaching, we have just about every Flame carrying the puck across the blue line.... It's amazing to see..... they attack with confidence, carry and have patience. The puck is always moving forward. Our penalty kill was spot on tonight.

I know it's getting old ragging on the officials, but some really odd calls and non-calls tonight.

Wideman blatantly high-sticked while battling for the puck, ends up bleeding. Engelland tripped by Malkin near the end of the 3rd while carrying the puck.

The Gio slash call in OT is what drives me crazy. Bonino sold it like he had been hit in the face, the ref obviously knew the stick didn't hit him in the face so they called it slashing not high-sticking, which is fine I guess... but give Bonino 2 for embellishing!

Obviously the refs knew he was embellishing, otherwise it would have been a high-sticking penalty.

Totally this. But it's nice to see all these Treliving picks perform in a function that produces as we expected at the beginning of the season.

I think I've watched Johnny's goal 70 times now. Rough estimate

Just finished watching. That was exciting hockey!

Crosby is on another level, but the Backlund line did great shutting them down for the most part (goal was a little lucky IMO).

Johnny's goal was ridiculous. He deked like 3 guys and Fleury twice.

10!
