After all the trash talking between the two teams, the Flames definitely don't want to lose bad at home to the Sharks.

Rittich gifted them two goals out of nowhere. And gave the Sharks full confidence.

Those aren't even half chances. He'd only get worse, as shown in Clb earlier when he let in a third.

Yeah I’ll defend Peters on that pull. Rittich clearly wasn’t ready to play. We need a save here. Disappointing, thought they started well.

Game turned on prouts penalty.

Prout and Mike Smith got Kane fired up.

Two terrible turnovers by Johhny and Bennett. They better pick it up tonight and turn this game around.

First goal was bad. Second one I can't blame Rittich for coming out to play it. 90% of the time that gets cleared. What I don't get is why Brodie telegraphed that drop pass so much. They look for that entry a little too much and other teams are catching on.

Well, it sucks but it's not like we haven't been down 2 in the first before. Get one back this period and it's all back on.

Don’t like the pull by Peters.

Smith always gets a long leash and Rittich deserves the same chance.

Whatever Johnny's been doing lately (nothing) needs to be changed.

Goats tonight so far:

Sam

The turnovers by Sam and Johnny were inexcusable

Flames can come back but they need Johnny to pick up his game.

Yea, this is reminding me way too much of the Gulutzan years where the team would fold like a cheap tent at the first sign of adversity.

Hopefully Peters can settle the guys down and get them to re-focus. We need a couple of good push-back shifts, and hopefully a goal before the period ends to get within one.

Cmon.... First goal, yeah Johnny had a bad giveaway and isn't playing great, but saying that's his fault when its a 1 on 1 and gets a fluke of a goal from far away is stupid, all Rittich.


Second goal, all Rittich again, but just some bad luck too.


Pulled because hes very visually disturbed. He's been known to get terrible once he's gotten like that so I don't see any issue with the pull.


3rd goal a sick tip, no way you pin that on Smith and get sour...



Still lots of hockey left! Lets goooooooo.
