Great system adjustment by Gulutzan.
2 players won a battle. A forward went hard to the net and the D got the puck on net.

It's not a joke. He has commented on it several times.

Flames are a different team when they score. I expect they will now tie this before end of regulation.

I haven't noticed... how many shifts has "roll four lines" given the Stajan line in the third?

anyway there sure is a lot of whining for what is the first game after a long road trip which are usually tough as it is, but matched up against honestly a pretty damn good Leafs team.
This would be one of the games where I think the fans should just pump the brakes a bit and usually I'm all aboard the negative nancy train.

That is one coaching decision I seriously question. Stone has an absolute cannon, why they don’t take advantage of that is somewhat baffling.

because we prefer brodie.... because his skating allows him to carry the puck into the offensive zone? Nope all he does is the bump back.
must be for his shot? Nope, it takes brodie like 3 seconds with the puck on his stick to process the decision to shoot, double clutch, making it impossible for the upcoming muffin shot to ever get anywhere near the net.

Janko is killing it, he’s our new 3C methinks. I hope he plays out the season right where he is.

Not sure. I cover my eyes when that line is on the ice.

You know, you make some good points now and then, but when you just make #### up to fit your narrative, I completely discount everything else you say. If you want to be taken seriously, you have to stop doing that.

I made nothing up. The Leafs' rebuild started when they shipped off Kessel, who our POHO traded off a 2nd overall pick and a 9th overall pick for, preventing them from rebuilding sooner.
The year they drafted Nylander, they expected to be a playoff team. They were bad, but not rebuilding. Not unlike us from 2010-2013

The Flames power play is currently ranked 9th operating at 22.2%. Brodie on the PP is working just fine. Not everyone has to be Al Macinnis to be effective.

you're right. however, as a flames fan who has watched hnic since the 80s till now, it's so easy to hate the leafs. Losing to them is right up there with the the oil/nucks.

Then you haven't covered your eyes. I don't think they've even been on once.
