2nd period so boring

The goals will come.

I feel the last two periods their play has been okay, not particularly good.

The Flames are certainly not a possession team tonight, just turning it back over and sloppy passes. When they do get shots on goal they are clear low chance shots a guy like Price is going to stop all night long.

Just one goal, but this is already bad. They do not have the ability to come from behind

This is true too. Although Bennett and Janko look alright, they haven't produced consistently enough to become reliant for secondary scoring. There's only the first line that can contribute, and as I've already mentioned, with Ferland not finishing of late, the line hasn't pile up the goals.

It does feel fairly reminiscent of the Brent Sutter era. Insurmountable 1 goal leads.

I agree, they're playing well defensively. They just can't seem to score at the moment, which is super frustrating. Scoring more than 2 on Price is gonna be a tall order.

I think the Jankowski Bennett line has been the best tonight. Hope the coach shortens the bench and tries to get a point or two tonight.

I just don't understand why other teams are able to be so successful in forechecking the flames, yet the flames are lucky to get a lazy stack wave in on the puck carrier on their forecheck

[Rejean31]

If the Flames play well defensively, they struggle to score. If they score goals, they struggle defensively. So damn frustrating!!

Been watching TSN 2 feed for a change but I have to shut it off at the intermission because they have Button spewing his garbage and the sight of him makes me want to throw a brick through my television.

[OldSam]

Shorten the bench, Bubbsy? Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha. That isn't the process.

[bubbsy]

Does anyone have any actual hope the flames can tie this up?

I do, so I will continue to watch. If you don't, why bother?

Some traffic would be nice.

I said actual hope. I have a fool's hope.
