It might just be sweeter to fluke out a win. Think of the heads exploding.

Why in the world did Tanner Glass play over Mark Jankowski? It’s like this organization is committed to shooting itself in the foot.

Gaudreau has been a significant liability this game so far. He needs to step it up the most of all the forwards.

The Backlund line has kept their chances fairly low from my eye. Fourth line has been bad in their zone, but at least get the puck below the opposing goal line. Third line is trying too hard or not at all, hard to say. And the Monahan line has been better as the game wears on.

Smith is the story of the game so far. Flames HAVE to back that goaltending up with some goal support.

These threads used to be fun with some optimism. Now every poster can't wait to take their shots at players they are supposed to be cheering for (myself included at times).

Do you guys even like this team?
Yep game threads are a joke now. Not every thought needs to be posted ffs.

Well, he's not up at the moment. Whining about it doesn't do much. And the guys you are complaining about are doing well for the most part.

Its basically McDavid vs Smith. Nobody else has been notable.

That beating on that clown Kassian is reason enough for me. The question should now be, why is Stajan holding Jankowski back?

If the Flames ever beat the Oilers 5-0 at home, it will be the sweetest feeling. Especially if McDavid is held off the scoresheet.

The McDavid love is annoying, but when the Oiler lose, it'll make the broadcast team look silly.

All this Connor McDavid talk can eff off! It gets sickening when he gets talked about repeatedly.

Game has the feel of an overtime game. Have a better feeling now with Smith than at the same time last year with Elliott. Flames win this one!

Glass has shown up tonight

Why didn't Jankowski play instead of Backlund Frolik Tkachuk Monahan Bennett or gaudreau ?

The Glass thing stings more because it’s not like they had to sign him.
Uh , Tapatalk, that’s not he post I wanted to quote.

I have no idea. Maybe he is but maybe he actually isn't. It may be someone else holding Janko back.
