Overall glad we won this one. After the linesman-skate goal I was prepping for more heart break.
Ya, I was thinking this team is cursed but they didn't quit and found a way. I stayed out of the GT tonight because I was afraid it would be doom and gloom and I wanted to enjoy the game. Hopefully this is the start of a string of wins.

Ferland was all over the offensive zone. It's weird the Brouwer takes his spot on the pp...
Glad to see Kulak have a pretty solid game.
I thought the Bennett/Jankowski/Lazar line was pretty good. Only line that did little for me was the Stajan line. How Stajan is still a flame is beyond me.
Would love for tonight to be looked at as a turning point for the team.

The pp was better tonight than the past few games. But it's not good. We are on the perimeter most of it and not scoring.
Why don't you enlighten me on my posts you are clearly obsessed with them
that last PP wasn't about scoring

Im talking about the pp in general it has to improve. Im not talking about that one single power play that with 2 minutes left that has to improve. As you would have seen I said yes that's the game over now that we got that last power play.
We are struggling to score and it is causing us to make games closer than they have to be when we have been the better team. Right? Is that negative or is it just the truth ?
Good all around game by the Flames tonight. Still thing they need a shooter on the first PP unit. Teams are allowing Johnny - Brodie - Versteeg pass it around because none of them have an overly dangerous shot from the point.

Meanwhile, in other action…Penguins backup goalie gives up goal on first NHL shot he faces, Pens down 5-0 after one period to Winnipeg.
I’ll slap the first person who shouts, "Grubauer to Pittsburgh."
Quote:
Hattie for Blake Wheeler…
Quote:
Not only a natural hat trick, but it came on three consecutive shots by Wheeler.
Quote:
More importantly, Murray was pulled after four goals on nine shots. Where’s that one gif of the goalie going "Ha ha, can’t hit me!"..
Quote:
Go Winnipeg. How sweet.
Quote:
Surprisingly enough Pens lead in SOG 22-14 after 2
The Consecutive Win Slump
Quote:
Two in a row would be nice.
Quote:
11 games, and we won 2 in a row just once. The first and the second one.
Quote:
Dare I say win streak?
2-1 good guys
Possession Bandits
Quote:
Johnny hockey’s line having its way with backy line right now. Oshie needed to get that deep
Quote:
Flames putting on puck possession clinic right now
Quote:
These D zone turnovers are killer.
Quote:
Getting outshot 28 – 20…
Quote:
Shots were 19 apiece at one point.
Quote:
got in the car after my beer league game, and the first name I hear on the radio is Ness.........night ruined immediately..
Quote:
I hate Ness. He’s bad at everything.
Quote:
Ness is bad luck. He plays and Caps lose. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!!
Quote:
If Ness had anything resembling a toolbox he'd be a half-decent player.
Quote:
Ness is cracking me up here. He skated around everyone twice, and threw the puck right to a Flame twice.
Brouwer’s old nickname
Quote:
Normally i’d expect to lose this B2B on a western swing. But when the other team has Shankapotamous on its roster ... i feel like we have a chance.
Quote:
At least Shanky P didnt score on his breakaway. That would have been tough to take.
Grubs having good game.
Quote:
Sportsnet is praising Brouwer during the intermission show. Of all people, they praised Shankapotomus
Ferland Tallies
Quote:
That could have been avoided. Bad.
Quote:
we’re having tough time with Ferland
Quote:
Not a good goal for us to let happen, but let’s keep it together and get two back.
Quote:
Too many lazy giveaways.
Quote:
Ovi needs to stop giving away the puck on the breakout.
Monahan Clutch, again
Quote:
Only a matter of time. The way gaudreau line was pinning top 2 lines in our end. That was a nice play by gaudreau
Quote:
Idiots!
I'm done with this game.
Quote:
Well that’s just frustrating as ####.
Quote:
Pizza is served, brought you by Dmitry Orlov
Quote:
Team just looks tired. #### the NHL for this schedule. Flames and Caps don't play again until Thursday. Absolutely no reason this game should have been tonight. Are the Flames not the primary tenant in the saddle dome or something?
Quote:
Holy cow, the PK unit was gassed.
Quote:
Carlson ... WTF
Quote:
That was predictable. Back to back and after a win. A leas we found our 1RW during this trip - DSP. Hopefully he'll surprise all of us.
Quote:
Ughhhhhh. Grubi deserves better, Caps. Get it back for him.
Someone should make a custom seat in the penalty box for Elller.
Quote:
Eller racking up the stupid penalties these last 2 games.
Quote:
Monahan wasn't his man, it was Kuznetsov's.
Also, Eller needs to cut the crap with the penalties.
Quote:
Also, Eller, man, maybe stop with the penalties. Leave some penalties for other players. Preferably Flames players.
Quote:
After the first period the Caps just pretty much crapped themselves.
What a Loser Mentality looks like
Quote:
If Wpg lays a beating on the Pens, that should subdue them for our game right?
Quote:
You can practically expect the bounceback game right now..
Quote:
This seems to have been happening a lot lately. Pits had the same thing last time we played them. Washington, Dallas, Chicago all getting beat bad the game before us.
Quote:
So we gonna get whooped Wednesday. Goodie.
I mean ****, Winnipeg scored 25% of the Oilers entire season output in 1 period
Quote:
Amazing how other teams score on the Penguins like they're not even there but the Oilers mustered one lousy goal.

Well they had two on the night and that was one of them...this thread is about THIS game
Yes the PP looked good tonight, much better...chances and possession on both of them
In a win where the Flames dominated the majority of the game most of your posts are negative. Its just a suggestion you might wanna lighten up, this is supposed to be fun after all.
