Probably didn’t help that he made it at such a late hour!

If the flames lose, blame scorp!
If the flames win, get ready for a lot of creative writing!

I guess this is the right time to come back for Smith. Isles are struggling with 0-4-4 record, playing rookie goalie in his second start. Smith hopefully does not have to be stellar tonight, just being good should be enough. Theres a wish we bury those chances this time. Lets win this one for him.

Just hoping that the teams doesn't go back to their lazy old habits because they think they can with Smith in net.

I hope Flames keep the same roster, give Smith another 2 days. No way he is 100%. They adjusted to play in front of Rittich the last two games.

I've been hearing it again and again that the one thing about Smith is he doesn't rush anything. He waits till he himself feels 100%, so there is no hesitation or anything still in the back of his mind.
I'm sure he's good to go. Just play some solid hockey so he gets some feels and I'm sure he'll be back to form, right on time! GO FLAMESSSSSSSS.

Shutout!

go with Rittich. I don't think he will let us down. But tell both of them that Smith is going in if Rittich lets in a soft one before the Flames score a goal or two.

Smith starts against the Oilers.

Flames wouldn't take a risk with putting Smith in, especially with Rittich playing well.

Whether or not he is 100%, the team would truly believe he will give the Flames a better chance to succeed over Rittich, which should mean something.

From what Smith said, he feels like this: Healthy? Check. Long ago. In good shape? Check. Recently. Mindset on stopping pucks instead of worrying about his groin? Check this week. He is good to go. But I would be absolutely ok with Rittich starting tonight, hes been great in those last 2 games.

Cecilia Gimenez put a lot of effort into her restoration of Ecce Homo, and certainly tried something new, but those two things don't mean the results should be above criticism. . . .

Well given the crisis some of you are having it is apparent that to some the GDT is the literal equivalent to a 100 year old depiction of Jesus.

Maybe you need to re-evaluate your life priorities if you find the GDT to be on par with permanently destroying an iconic religious depiction of god.


Are you clear on that Scorp? This GDT is literally worse than defacing a picture of our lord and saviour. Your custom user title should be god-killer.

Love the OP when I first read it. Love it now that I get the metaphor. Probably going to be one of those weird things a guy remembers forever.
