In some circles to run up the score but I love it.... when it’s in our favour!

When you are in a professional league its not poor form, its called finish. They are big boys and if one team gives up, the other shouldn't let up.

Killer instinct.

It’s something that’s been missing from too many Flames teams in recent years and I love seeing here now.

That's quite a 3rd Period for the Calgary Flames:

I’m going to be singing TNT in my sleep tonight after that one.

I am so glad they brought back the “Yahoo” after goals too, always makes my smile a little wider

[TheScorpion]

Wow. Quite a game I missed here. Glad to see Johnny/Monahan/Lindholm off the schneid in a big way, and good to see Doc Ryan rewarded with a three-point night. Love it!

I think the dome can bring that chant to a huge level come playoffs.

[FusionX]

Anyone know if Monahan's hat he had on during post-game scrum is available anywhere? Thanks!

This was your prediction for tonight's game:

You named all the big players, but sold them all short!

Around the League Report

Spoiler!

Binghamton Devils

GO SOMEBODIES!

I always laugh at the ‘man games lost to injury’ stat

That second line oof

and 1st 3rd and 4th

Our players have no clue how to pass or handle passes.

Please delete if someone actually put effort into an actual GDT.

We stink, but do play a game tonight...

Binghamton vs Potential SCF team, let's go!

May be a record low for GDT participation. Late start. We stink. Calgary very good. Only tuning in to watch Blackwood and see what the William Hill odds line will be opcorn:

Go Team Sickbay!

Goal 1 of 9: Johnny on the break

Watching this team try to break out all season has given me PTSD.

I feel irreversibly traumatised watching our breakout and we're not even 5 minutes in.

Really? LOL. That defines the season in a nutshell.

Cool. Games already over.

Yikes this one is gonna be rough. Flames are too good

That Stat pack just had to mention gadreau's goal drought....

Don't forget. Johnny Hockey with something like 1 goal in his last 16. Here comes the hatty.

Glad this game will be over by the middle of the 2nd so I dont have to be exhausted at work tomorrow

Gaudreau got in behind the defense and received a pass.
He did exactly what you’d expect.
In general, Calgary has controlled the game so far. Let’s see how NJ responds

Ultimate Ice Tilt

This team just sucks at every level and everything but the PK. They suck at passing, they cant handl passes, they are too slow to react, they stand still and watch the other team counter rush, they chase everything, they have zero creativity, their PP is a total **** show. The staff has no clue when to pull a goalie or not to.

i feel like butcher still has issues hitting the net. I know it was an issue last year too. seems like a lot of his shots from the blue line are never even on target

Watching him take bad angles, getting coned constantly, having garbage accuracy on his shot on the PP as the QB, and consistently being unable to get out of his own defensive zone.

The lack of ability to execute the basic fundamentals is really telling. Get freaking Gordon Bombay out the with some eggs.

m so tired of this stupid defense just backing up letting the other team take the offensive zone.

Goal 2 of 9: Sam Bennett and the Most Dangerous Lead in Hockey

I always get scared when we go up by 2, even more than when we go up by 1.

It's like score effects on steroids.

The worst lead in hockey...well actually according to Stan it's three goals but really for us it's two.

God damn it.

Play time is over, back to the tank

Incredible how the puck keeps ending up going between our players and into the net when nobody on this team can pass or shoot

What is happening

Yak went to go side of the net for outlet.. left front of the net open.. realized his mistake and they capitalized. Sometimes its just a quick second.

Who's ready for a devils 2 goal blown lead?

Goal 3 of 9: Return of the Zebulon

Lol I don't even know why we bother getting a 2 goal lead

There's the typical two goal blown lead.

Called it. Greene is so ****ing bad I cant wait for him to be gone. Stupid stupid player.

Still jealous of Calgary pulling off a trade and getting Hanifin and Lindholm. That’s the kind of trade we need to get out of this ****.

Devils blowing a 2 goal lead because of stupid defenseman & a terrible system? shocked.

Just like I've been telling you guys. It wasn't Keith Kinkaid that was the problem here. Give it some time and Blackwood will suffer the same fate that Kinkaid did. He's benefiting from a highly unsustainable save percentage that's far above the expected save percentage of .890% behind this team.

Please, no. Too predictable that after one or two games like this it will Beetlejuice him and the lone other remaining member of the Keith Kinkaid fanclub. And the post will be verbatim to yours.

WTF, I come back and it's tied?

You expected us to hold a 2 goal lead so early? This team, with this roster, this defense & this system?

Look at how stupid our defensive system is. The guy chasing the puck carrier peels off of him for some reason, and lets him just have time to make a play.

Goal 4 of 9: Ryan with an early “Happy Gilmore”

Lol at that luck

Now that looked like a bad goal.

First one in a while on Blackwood. First one since before the all star break.

severson you ****in idiot, be more aware

You'd like to see a save on that one.

Whatever, he was due to get lit up. It hasn't happened much.

lol of course the one game the popgun offense actually roars to life is the game the goaltending collapses. We may really lose 19 in a row.

Can't get any more unlucky than this ####. #### off

hey guys if we could stop tripping our own goalie that'd be greatly appreciated

Goal 5 of 9: Johnny Hockey Penalty Shot

Well ####

Mother ####er

Johnny is good-reau

That is some of the worst "defense" you're every going to see in your life of watching hockey by an NHL "defenseman" there by Severson.

It's men's 40 year old and older beer-league worthy.

EXPERIENCE 2018-2019 DEVILS HOCKEY

this game is a perfect summary of this season

Gatorade ... Is it in you?

OK well how bout on you?

Imagine being caught in the hot dog line to start the third period and missing 2 goals 1 minute in

Goal 6 of 9: Derek Ryan could’ve scored with a snow shovel

Lol Easiest goal Ryan has ever scored

I was so happy when we were up 3-1 and I left for a meeting.
Now I'm broken.

You know, we may not win a game the rest of the season.
Its bad that I'm very meh about it too.

We are bad

So 3 guys go to the puck carrier and leave the other side of the ice wide open. Now that’s defense

Lol I remember growing up and watching this team and just assuming making the playoffs was a given
How far have we fallen...

Our defensive system going full force there. It just creates that chaos without the other team having to do much.

Goal 7 of 9: The Johnny Hatty

amazing how the d somehow manages to be even worse on that play

Snap, who called the Johnny hatty?

God we suck , when was the last time we beat Calgary on the road ?

Imagine if New Jersey simply drafted the guy from New Jersey.

If Gaudreau goes 5 hole, that's in again

I ####ing hate this team.

By the time it got out of hand, there were 12 minutes gone in the third. At that point, why bother.

Devils hockey 2018-2019.
Just wait until the Devils call you to ask if you’re interested in tickets, over and over and over and over again during this joke of a season.

Goal 8 of 9: Mony finally scores

Yeeeaaaah man on man defense.

Oh yeah, some %$#^@# told me we don't play man on man defense the other night

On that last goal, Severson and Greene are on the same side of the ice about 4 feet apart and there's a man WIDE open alone in front.

Wow

Dano called it "a little confusion"

Why the #### did Rooney clear that in front of his own net? Woof.

Lol why did I even bother watching? We all knew what was gonna happen after blowing a 2 goal lead

I'm so ####ing tired of being ####

lol might as well have pulled him at 7-4 instead of risking leaving him in for 10. This is where I get annoyed with Hynes, he seems to punish goalies who have bad games by leaving them out there to die more often than he should.

Goal 9 of 9: Chucky’s Cherry on Top

First time we gave up 6 goals in one period since 1989...hoooooo boy.

Tkachuk you bitch

This was a tough one to nap to, freaking horn going off every 2 minutes.

6 unanswered in the 3d has to be some kind of record.

Lol 6 point night for Gaudreau. Must be nice to have a legit 1st line instead of a pile of replacement level plugs

Good to see they only wanted to play two periods tonight. Beats only playing one period.

I bailed after 6-4. Just checked the score and holy **** is all I can say. 6 goals against IN THE THIRD PERIOD. Doesn’t get any lower than that.

LoL.. I swear this season reads like a really bad dark fan fiction of the NHL

lol how the **** did it reach 9

There was no reason for those last two goals to happen with a minute left.

Let them win it 7-4, fine, do whatever you have to do to keep it that way, but there's no excuse for the last two goals to happen.

Wait, we actually had a lead in a 9-4 loss? At least we're finding new and interesting ways to lose.

Mr. Trademark

Okay we’re gonna steam roll New Jersey tomorrow .

Show these pretenders how it’s done .

penalty shot

Mister Trademark made sure to wave his hands everywhere for that call

And Mr Trademark scores

That is literally Gaudreau’s only move in the shootout.

How did Blackwood not know that ?

Another Hat Trick for a Flame. Ugh I wanna puke .

Congrats on barely beating New Jersey lol Rittich is still trash.

Blackwood got left in for all 9 goals? Hahaha that’s brutal.

Trademark with 6 points passes Drai

Is Nj that much os a POS garbage team?

Murphy’s Law in the Third

I was excited to watch New Jersey try and hang on to that lead. 61 seconds in and they're down lmfao.

Lol ffs, they can’t be stopped

Oh come on Devils.

Oh ####, not a penalty shot by that dude smh

What the hell, what is happening right now?

Lmao ####in chill Calgary

That was a perfect pass by Gaudreau, Ryan didn't even have to move to put that in

They were just waiting for us sharks fans to show up before they started killing em

Gaudreau: "Hey coach so should we like be scoring or something"
Peters: "Not yet my boy, I want them to watch"

Devils what the ####. Seriously what the ####.

3 goals in 2:37 for Calgary. Cool.

You know they saw the final score between SJ and WPG in the locker room during intermission and decided to turn it up.

So NJ whats the likelihood of you scoring 7?

And the extra point is GOOD

This is just mean now

devils pls

I think we are well past begging here

Hey guys just checking in to see how this game's goi-
oh

Other star players: 5 points spread out over 5 games
Johnny, an intellectual: 5 6 points all in the same game just to flex on the Devils

Stop! They’re already dead!

Straight massacre...

Well, well, well.

My prediction against the Rangers: Smith allows just one goal. Janko has two points, Hanifin scores, Gaudreau gets up to 92 points, and Oscar Fantenberg picks up his second point as a Flame.

I’ve seen those at Fanattic at the Dome. Nice looking lids, I’ve considered them myself

Threw a stick and had a beer with the boys, obviously

No one has had a six point game for a few years. The last player to have a six point game was the Dallas Stars' Jamie Benn. November 14, 2013 vs Calgary.

Seguin scored 4 goals that game. Benn scored 1 and got 5 assists in a 7-3 Dallas win.
