Yeah, no. He’s been our best forward tonight.

Haha, I caught that too. Doing his best to be an optimist in this one.

So we may never win again?

[motorcrosser]

So they'll play Smith and eek one out at fla. Then we'll have the same goalie conversation yet again.

No frog and no red cars all game. Too late now but remember that.

[Red]

Sad!!!

Thy need to mix things up to get the mojo back. Top line isn’t working right now

Hope this pisses the flames off a bit.

meh...

someone complained about calgary doing this... it think it was an edmonton fan in the last game...but the 1st pp wasn't even trying...

8 minutes left or so at that point in the game?

its up to calgary to stop them imo.

if the roles were reversed, i'd hope calgary would do the same to them

He has made 21 saves.

We were bound to have a bit of a drop off. I don’t think the all star break has anything to do with it personally.

[Badgers Nose]

Maybe this loss is the smelling salts they need to wake up from their all star break drowsiness. Kind of like how the Penguins game snapped them out of the last funk.

[ComixZone]

After a TV timeout, PP2 gets to start the power play. That’s Peters sending a message to Johnny and crew.

Our bottom 6 and Frolik, yes. Not as much difference in skill as you might think and certainly the will to win and play hard is coming from any of these players...saw it on Saturday night and guaranteed the pay raise, plane travel, top shelf hotels, etc... are all huge incentives.

Neal shouldn't be net front.

[flames_fan_down_under]

Seems like this team is just waiting for someone on the team to respond rather than collectively responding. It's a bad game. They happen. The Lightning are the best team in the league by a country mile for a reason. This is not the true Flames but they have definitely shown at times how bad they can be. I don't really understand why this team would need another "wake up" call a la the Pittsburgh beat down so I hope this is just a blip.

Neutral zone turnovers, lazy line changes, lack of effort, careless with the puck, shooting when you should be passing and vice versa. All the usual stuff teams do when they lose.

[crapshoot]

Alright, comeback time! Four goals in 7 mins on the best team in the league. Let's do it!

[FanIn80]

Ok that goal was beautiful.

[Nsd1]

That was nice
