[GT] Blackhawks @ Flames

[djsFlames]

Neal could be better used, for sure. They're wasting his shot with the black hole playmaking of janko and Bennett. Neither of those two rack up assists for a reason.

He really should retire

Least Sheltered

1. Hanifin (complete opposite of his time in Carolina)
2. Ryan
3. Neal
4. Giordano
5. Lindholm
6. Bennett (on all these lists in a favourable way)
7. Hathaway
8. Dube (impressive for a rookie)
9. Czarnik
10. Hamonic

Ryan plays the toughest minutes of any forward on this team. And what does he give up?

Second-best results of any forward.

Coles must be very eager to finish calling this game and go home

I agree with that. Jankowski is invisible. Ryan at least moves the puck up the ice effectively.

Frolik is a better player than Ryan, Hathaway, Jankowski (for now), Czarnik and in some aspects Bennett. Frolik is a model of consistency for an Nhler. Strong 200 foot game and a consummate professional.

Flames have given up 7 shots in over 30 minutes of hockey and we're losing.

We need to look at David Rittich's puppy.

I agree.

Czarnik really needs to step up on this opportunity with dube out.

[direwolf]

How the hell did we not score on that golden chance in front of the net? This game is frustrating.

No argument here, again, I love the guy. Just saying he's not a 2nd liner

And just like against the Avs, justice will served.

Actually I'm not ncorrect Well in hockey a centeman is a forward as well. Backlund plays the hardest minutes.

[SmoggyFlamesFan]

While some of Bob Cole's mistakes are comical, the guy commands some respect. He is still going a better job than most of us could do.

That’s 2 more than they’ve had on Crawford.

[thefoss1957]

Saad with a power move...this one will be reviewed.

[btimbit]

This game is pissing me off

[SmoggyFlamesFan]

Oh FFS. COME ON

[GioforPM]

Rittich is complaining. He was shoved out of the way by Saad.

[djsFlames]

The hell was that? A bunch of colliding bodies and a puck slides through.
