Loved loved loved that hit by Valimaki -- made the game for me! (And glad to see he DID get an assist for it, too...)
Sometimes your goalie just ain't very good and your team simply needs to put up a lot of goals. Flames did just that tonight....and that is Ok by me. THAT is the correct team response.
Good on 'em!!

Nice to see the team rewarded with timely goals later in the game as they continued to struggle to finish earlier. And that had to be really frustrating.
Loved the Blender in action tonight. I think those different forward looks were a huge part of the comeback. And it’s awesome to see 3M carry the load offensively.

Worth pointing out that the first game vs Colorado also turned when Bennett destroyed Compher with a huge hit. The shots after that point were 22-4 or something for the Flames.

I can listen to Bill peters break down his thought process game in and game out until the cows come home. Smart man and elaborates whats in his head perfectly.

I find with Bennett being an impact player this year it's really balanced out our top 9.

Scrolled on over to hf avalanche board. Seems many are blaming the loss on the 5min charging penalty. Which I agree that was a good hit, but you still blew a 3 goal lead lol.
