That's what I saw. But I suppose it's not distinct enough.

Will it be Smith to start the 2nd?

Shut up Eric Francis

Flames have to give them something to cheer about. Score a couple of goals and the Calgary fans will come alive.

I miss the top line and Tkachuk.

Flames need to get physical and the crowd needs to get into it. The leafs have shown they can't play tough hockey all year

NEWS FLASH........... BOTH OUR GOALIES ARE SUB PAR. HAVE BEEN FOR A WHILE!!!!

100% this. If Smith lets in those same goals, he'd get absolutely filleted, especially on the second one.

The Flames seem to have lost the ability to score in bunches lately. Because of that, the goaltending needs to be top-notch. It hasn't been.

I know people are bemoaning the lack of scoring tonight, but IMO they've had grade A chances and Anderson has shut them out.

No, it’s worse than usual. Normally there’s competing chants but tonight barely an audible go Flames go.

[Yamer]

I dunno, Eric. Guy had to score with his feet. Looked like Hammer did his job well enough on that 3rd goal.

The flames have the fewest hits of any team in the league this year.

I see a lot of goals in my kid's soccer/futsal games that look exactly like that and they say nice shot after.... Is kicking motion only a Charlie Brown style toe punt? It's a pretty silly rule as it is.

Agree. Our D is so soft on them, it's a crime. Andersson was the only one that was willing to take the body.

I'm sorry but if you think those goals are on Rittich you need to learn a hell of a lot more about the game of hockey.

We tie this baby up.

I guess I’m the only one who thinks the top line is fine tonight. Johnny is undressing people and Lindholm has made several good plays. Gaudreau’s pentalty was a total joke too
