Hope the Flames players aren't half as nervous as I am about the game tonight.

However, I hope the Flames players are as excited as I am about the game tonight.

I just registered for Pinnacle Sports so that I could put $50 on a Ducks win, cause that would surely break the curse. They keep declining my transaction though... won't let me fund my account.

This curse goes deeper than I thought.


Edit: can someone else check out the site? Now when I go to cashier, it takes me to a '404 File Not Found' page

I'm feeling pretty good about tonight. Earlier I thought I lost my Flames toque, but then I found it. Wooot! Go Flames!

Losing tonight would be a huge psychological blow to the team. They need to be physical but smart. Also someone needs to knock Kesler around....it seems Kesler and Beiksa held a seminar "Diving....the Can####s way" during practice

I dont think so really.

In the playoffs you are never in trouble until you lose at home. These are two games that the Flames are more or less expected to lose. The whole point is that you are expected to win at home, which is why theres a 'home-ice' advantage.

We lose at the 'Dome, then okay I agree with you, but until then you can reasonably anticipate this series being 2-2 after 4.

The Ducks are an extremely good hockey team, likley a Cup contender. On a more evenly matched series, I'd agree, but in this one I'd argue that a split at the Saddledome is much more "reasonably anticipated" than a Flames sweep, so therefore tonight is critical, imo.

I agree, but its kind of 6 of one and a half dozen of the other.

Most would reasonably expect a sweep in Anaheim and a split at home and then we're dead.

A 1-0 overtime victory would be pretty intense and awesome.

just woke up from my two hour pregame nap, putting my whisky glasses in the freezer to chill them, firing up the grill to make some dogs.

I'd say I'm ready to go.

No. It would not be.
It would be a huge blow to the fan base.
Lets not confuse the two.
