[GT] Calgary @ Edmonton: There Will Be Blood!

[bubbsy]

There's been one missed call in my view tonight (high stick that hit tkatchuk) but other than that, the disallowed goal seemed reasonable, the Bennett penalty looked legit, as did the prout, and now lindholm infraction.

This game isn't on the refs, the flames other than Rittich, have been pure garbage. In my view, it's to be expected.

Sunday games are the worst.

[browna]

Missing Gio for sure on PP.
Plenty of time to tie it.

"McDvid will stay out". No duh.

[CalgaryFan1988]

this is the kind of game where the Flames could only give 3 minutes of effort and win.

Oilers have been holding and interfering all night.

Ritter has been great this game. Skaters just look gassed. Looked a little gassed vs the preds at the end too.

[Firebot]

Oilers are a bad hockey team...Flames look real tired out there and out of sync, and despite everything in the Oilers favour (top players out, back to back, hockeytown) they are still only up 1-0, and the Flames are still in it.

[SportsJunky]

If the Flames kill this penalty, watch out. They love to comeback in the 3rd.

Hey get that rational thinking out of a game thread, come on man.

[The Boy Wonder]

Flames effort has been staggered and in such short spurts that it’s tough to say we should be winning but onthe other hand it’s the oilers so shouldn’t be a question

[KootenayFlamesFan]

So...........is this it for the Oilers?

Basically fully healthy and rested. And this is it?

Yikes. Color me unimpressed, they should be all over the Flames tonight who are clearly tired and not having their best night.

If Lindholm was the last flame to touch the puck before the penalty, then the Oilers win the faceoff cleanly and score in their net...technically it is possible. Lol.

[LWcrowfoot]

This narrative all evening of the BoA being "back" is ridiculous. If roles were reversed and Calgary was out of the playoffs while the Oilers were first in the west you'd never be hearing anything like this. Why are the media so quick to praise the Oilers? Is it a history thing?

[Aarongavey]

This is where Gulutzan has to come through with his battle of Alberta magic.

Rittich is the only Flame who came to play.

[Cali Panthers Fan]

If there is a positive to this game, it's that Rittich looks locked in again after a shakey showing the last time out in Columbus.

Was thinking just this...

[David Struch]

Wake Up Flames!

Tkachuk with the goal.
