One goal game, where the Flames were the better team for a large part, especially the first.

Now, i don't understand why he is even dressed. Inept offensively, dumb defensively. Sad

Can’t wait to read about how the refs have been terrible.

That goal woke the Flames up. Suddenly they look much more like the team we've been watching for 19 games. Where was this team in the 1st half of the game??

Rittich is playing with confidence right now. Nice to see from a Flames goaltender in a tight game!

Thought so too but he wasn't putting much weight on the one leg when that puck squeezed out into the coner. He had a clear run to the puck and kinf of limped. Then in the flames zone he looked gassed but also labored.

Okay. I appreciate the turtle car posts. We got a goal. But I think if we sacrifice a frog we got this....Dissen?



I am kidding... I think...

Edit- Iam. I know people are sensitive about jokes

Sophomore slump, He'll come out the other side of this season a good hockey player.

A lot of credit to Rittich...Oilers could have 4 more goals just on grade AAA SH chances.

Yep. Time to admit that Jankowski is a bust. The guy will never be anything more than a tweeter - imo

If Smith was in net, he would have let in everyone one of those breakaways

Really? How many odd man rushes did the Flames give them?

I know you like to be the voice of reason here, and that's fine but let's get real here. The Oilers have more breakaways shorthanded than the Flames have top notch chances.

100% The couple games have been really rough for him lately. Fortunately, from the eye test it looks like Brodie has been really hot lately. Monahan has also been kinda invisible tonight and Backlund isnt having the best game either. But man, Rittich is so easy to like. Playing amazing and he gets so pumped up, I love it. Just before Ryan scored and he did that gesture, I love it.
