Happy with the point.

PP is still an embarassment that is going to start costing us games.

Boring boring boring game. Flames looked awful for most of it were lucky to get a point imo. Not surprised as it was our first home game after a long road trip followed by a long break plus an afternoon game to boot . They almost looked hung over.

Meh, I will take 15/16 points in the last 8.

If they beat the Sabres, Oilers --- then at least 1 point against the Kings, that would be a solid way to go on the All star break.

The team, and in particular the top line, looked very flat. Happy to get a point given how the game went. Easy for the coaches to use this one to whip the team a bit, while still getting a point out of it.

Got a point. Smith is dialed in.

Can’t win them all. Not mad at all.

Thank god for Mike Smith, he was incredible today. He is the only reason why we got a point.

Worst games of the season for Backlund, Ferland and Monahan today. Hope that gets these guys mad and they have a bounce back effort on Monday vs. Buffalo

Power play still sucks.

Difference was Mike Smith. But for him we lose by at least a couple.

Flames top line was awful and Smith got them a point. The overturned goal was ridiculous, but the Flames skated in mud all game.

At least the team got a point in their first game back from a 5 day break against a top team in the NHL. Can't forget that the Jets are 6th overall in the NHL.

No doubt the bye week affected the Flames though, but a point is a point. Now the Flames have 3 more games before... Another 5 day break after which they face another top team in the league, Las Vegas... Crap.

Got robbed on the goal review but they weren’t very sharp today offensively. Some horrendous passing and the team wasted way too many odd man rushes without even getting a shot on net. Chalk it up to rust and poor officiating and get some good practices in.

Gulutzan's fault.

We're doing that again, yes?

The review had them winning in regulation if it stands though. I think they got screwed out of two points. That was a good goal.

Monahan did not deserve to shoot at the end.

Grabbed the loser point though. That's what playoff teams do. Rebound and get the W against Buffalo who are coming off a shellacking.
