I kinda wish Rittich was in net at the end only to see his early celebration when Hamilton scored.

Great to see a huge win from the boys. I was blown away by Ferland's pass on the GWG, what incredible awareness. His play has been incredible and he is by far the best story on the Flames this year. Huge character win, and the ducks can go pound sand.

The refs had to swallow that one. If they call a bench minor they wouldn't have made it out alive.

Helluva win. Hate the Ducks so much. Perry is a p.o.s.

Top line was good. Janko line was a beast. Backs line was decent. Good game all-around.

I've seen some ok things out of Lazar. Just like Bennett needed to play wing, similarly Lazar needs to play center.

Mangiapane-Lazar-Hrivik/Stajan. I wana see Lazar given a run with Hrivik and Mangiapane to see if he can be saved if not he'll be gone at some point.

Tkachuk is a good player but his skating needs to improve if he wants to be a consistent point producer. I really hope he works on that this summer.

No, because they're inconsistent, inept and generally completely incompetent.

If you watched that game and didn't think the officiating was atrocious I'm not sure what to tell you.

Worst officiating I've seen in a long time. And that's saying something because it's generally on the verge of bad and terrible on a nightly basis.

On the radio after the game they were talking about Mike Smith’s reaction after Hamilton’s goal. Any chance anyone saw it? Or better, know where I can see it?

No.

Lazar does not deserve to play over even Stajan. Unbelievably he's been even worse than a done Stajan.

Hrivik can play, and Stajan can move into the press box permanently hopefully when Frolik comes back.

Lazar can try again next year.

Great win tonight, loved the fact that the team wasn't afraid to go toe to toe with the Ducks when things got rough. Outside of the Ducks 3rd period push back the Flames were the better team all night. Great to see them edge it out in an intense game.

What a fantastic game.

So, in spite of how excellent the Flames played, and against the grain of celebrating this epic win, I have to know...

Curtis Lazar is a National Hockey League player, who has played the game his whole life at the highest levels—how is it possible that he can never shoot the puck actually in the direction of the goal?

*EDIT*
Also, to anyone who wants to complain about how the Flames "almost" let this win slip through their grasp: Give your head a shake. The third period was a clinic in head games by the Anaheim Ducks, and the Flames young core punched them right back in the mouth. This was a HUGE win.

I think it's hilarious that Bieksa was implying that Tkachuk had an assist in the Ducks goal. Does he realize that he made a tape to tape pass to gaudreau on the game winner. It was a slick passing passing play. Bieksa to Johnny to Monahan to Ferland to Hamilton and boom. As nice a play as the Flames made all year. Atta boy Bieska.

Mangiapane makes the 4th line a lot better. I really like his game. Sorry Lazar, but I think he's stolen your spot on the team.

What a fun game!

He also literally tried to flamingo out of the way of Giordano's shot and deflected it into his own net!
