What an absolute amazing comeback to watch, crowd got louder and louder as it went on and the goals started coming! Great to see Rittich proving himself time and again, that double save sequence was insanity! I think it was off a brutal effort from I believe Gio/Brodie when skating after a face off that was won too well in the offensive zone. Madness!! Glorious madness!!!
Tkachuk definitely looking for a hard cross ice pass, maybe even trying to bank it off the defenseman in front if Backlund didn’t get it.
Kessel’s stick slightly hitting Tkachuk’s stick on the follow through, though, slightly changes the angle of when and where the puck came off of and it goes on net.

Mangipane on the "top line"

After periods 1 and 2...I felt little hope. Perimeter game, satisfied with poor quality shots, gave up too many high quality shots, but then this all happened.
I don’t think the Flames deserved to win tonight, but they did find a way - and that’s important. The top line needs to figure out how to play 5v5 hockey effectively again, they need to be better - they need to generate more.
I’m not sure how much harder I can fall in love with Rittich, but I’m looking forward to finding out!
Feels good to cheer for an exciting come back win again though. Awesome ending at the Dome.

To some degree a game between a tired Yotes team and a team returning from a seriously tough road trip was gonna be like this.
That’s the thing. This wasn’t a “rested” Flames team that had a couple days off prior to this game.. It was still their 3rd game in 4 nights coming back from an Eastern road trip.
This wasn’t the Predators game where they were dominated for 40 minutes. The game was pretty even overall.
Really the big thing is they need to cut out the just horrible mistakes like the play by Mangiapane on the first goal. And in terms of the mental mistakes, and the team not being crisp (passes into the skates) that looks a lot like a tired team to me.
Team can probably really use a break and a couple days of actual practice, which I doubt they’ve really been able to have due to the schedule.

I don't hate it, stacking the top line worked last year but hasn't yet this year. It absolutely shows how bad we need another top 6 winger that can play the right side though

Peters: “I thought we gave them a couple goals … we weren’t very good. We couldn’t pass the puck. Everything’s in the feet. Everything is behind guys. When you look slow, it’s puck speed and execution with the puck....
...There’s guys open, we don’t see them. There’s guys open, we put it behind them. It’s the National Hockey League, we’ve gotta be able to make a pass.”
hard to disagree with this

Peters not happy in the scrum at all. Not the first time that we have heard it this year, but his thoughts together with Chucky's comments hopefully will produce some changes

Let’s Go Yotes! I wanna see some Boring Hockey out there. Let’s put these Flames to sleep.

Let's go play some boring hockey boys
Quote:
Can we embrace boring hockey like Carolina embraced bunch of jerks?
Quote:
My prediction: 3 boring goals and 1 super fun one.
Quote:
So boring
Quote:
SERIOUSLY WTF DO PEOPLE VIEW AS EXCITING HOCKEY SOMEONE EXPLAIN
Quote:
I used to stand on the flight deck of a aircraft carrier. That was pretty close.
Quote:
Well, it starts with tanking a bunch of seasons to get that first draft pick. A couple will be busts, but eventually you'll get 2 guys that seem pretty good.
Quote:
Time to bore the Alberta area into a W...
Quote:
Calgary is alright, if anything we should be joining forces to form an anti EDM block.
Quote:
Looks empty af in Calgary.. oh thats right the BoRiNg Coyotes about the roll thru town lets goooo
Quote:
Wtf lol the dude on Calgary feed just said we are boring to play. Is it the same dude that wrote the article? It's the sportsnet intermission.
Game Day Bingo
Quote:
Quote:
That bingo board really has to find it's way onto the main boards somehow, if it hasn't already. Very nicely done. Certainly if we make the playoffs.
Quote:
If we can eke out a couple more wins, it should be posted there with no text. Any shots people want to take will be redundant. "Sorry, done already. Row 2, Column 1."
Quote:
A+ for the bingo board. I feel like "referee bias" could be on there like 3 times based on the comments in opposing teams GDTs. If you want some entertainment go skim the Oilers GDT from yesterday, according to that thread the Oilers should have had at least 15 PPs last night.
Quote:
"Boring Trap" should be a free space on Sniper's bingo board.
An Old Friend
Quote:
Look out...Toby Rieder has a goal this season.
Quote:
I'll only be okay with a Flames goal if and only if it's from Toby Reider.
Quote:
Hey look a shift Rieder was involved in in the o zone that wasn't a rush was all perimeter. That's familiar.
Quote:
Getting beat by McDavid is understandable, but Rieder? Come on, Oliver.
Quote:
Well that didn't last long and Rieder almost dunked on us (you know he wanted to)
Quote:
Rieder is fast as ****. I give OEL the benefit of the doubt there
Fan Friendship Tour 2019-20

Embarrassing sell job by Walt's kid. Man I'd hate having to cheer for that kid.
Quote:
Thus my no Tkachuks policy in drafting. Even if they are good.
Plus we'd never hear the end of it from Walsh. Hell we barely hear the end of it now and the kids don't play here.
Quote:
So... who punches Tkachuk tonight?
The kid is a solid chirper
Quote:
Weak. Tkachuk turned around and skated into Bush. Whatever.
Interview Robots
Quote:
I dont know why, but I feel every Dvo interview response goes:
"He did a thing, then I did a thing... and, yea. A thing happened."
####in love that guys personality in interviews. Like a robot trying to prove its not a robot.
Quote:
He basically asked him if that goal is helpful for his confidence after struggling early this season
Quote:
Such a dumb question MID GAME... almost trying to get in his head
"We've been winning hockey games. Let's talk about that."
Quote:
I bet that we fired him years ago, but he won't stop coming in to work every morning even though he's not getting paid. Yet everyone else is too polite to tell him to just go home already because no one likes him.
Quote:
Keller with that sass damnnn
Johnny finally scores!
Quote:
Someone please insert that stupid horn deep in the most convenient orifice of the person blowing it.
Quote:
dang, that was a nice sequence for Calgary and a bit lazy on us.
Quote:
Nice goal. Not boring.
Quote:
K time to start playing again not make the third a heart attack like last night plz.
Quote:
That was the most fun goal I have ever seen. Coyotes would never score something like that.
Quote:
Feels like another overtime game. I hope I am wrong.
Tkachuk tips in a PPG
Quote:
So many ####ing penalties! That ####'s gonna bite us in the ass before long.
Edit: ####ing called it
Quote:
GJ Hayton, Flames in it now
Quote:
oh man!
Quote:
Palms are sweaty
Quote:
You won't see Hayton out any more this game. Too many pims today for the kid. Gotta lean when you're up by 2 that giving a PP is not ok
Quote:
OEL pastes him against the boards then let him go free in front of the net.
Quote:
c'mon fellas...that is why you don't take a penalty with less than 4 minutes remaining. Flames were dead in the water and we just gave them some life.
Quote:
Haytons face when they scored when he was in the box.. Lol
Double Agent Demers
Quote:
Demers scoring goals for the wrong team.
Quote:
Well **** here we go
Quote:
Oh ####, we're Yotesing again!
Quote:
That's a rough way to choke away the lead.
Quote:
Amazing ability to hand away points late in the game.
Quote:
To division rivals no less.
Quote:
What is Demers even thinking there
Quote:
How does that happen, Jesus
Quote:
Well this went south fast
Quote:
trying to lose this one
Quote:
Lol let's be honest we saw this coming. It's been all Flames for the second half of the game.
Quote:
That dreaded two goal lead.
Quote:
Just get to OT...
Quote:
We need a coach just for third periods. Geeze.
Chucky wins it in OT
Quote:
Alright at least we get a point. What a joke.
Quote:
They knew we were bored and wanted to make it exciting.
Quote:
Of ####ing course. 2 dead ass bounces and a #### goal in OT. Always some dumb bull#### in the 3rd period. Team takes mountains of penalties and our pk is a ####in trash pit.
Quote:
c'mon Raanta cover low you bastard
Quote:
That was a bad goal for Raanta
Quote:
This is two games in a row most familiar statement "Coyotes can’t clear"
Quote:
**** Kessel, that entire thing is on him
Quote:
Wow. Kessel caught out there for ****ing ever and they score as he is visibly gassed. At least pretend you arent tired dude. ****.
Quote:
His body language just told the Flames its a 3 on 2. So they start working the puck and what-do-you-know, they score.
Quote:
It was his lazy little limp dick pass that started the Flames possession, dude is straight trash right now.
Quote:
####. Desperately needed a change. Phil had nothing left in the tank. Brutal one to lose with a 3-1 lead with under 5 to go.
Quote:
I feel bad for Raanta. Made some big saves throughout the night, only for Demers to score an own goal and then lets in a weak one in OT.
Tocc will be having a word with Hayton I imagine. It all started to fall apart after his penalty.
Quote:
Tocc is gonna have to keep Kessel off the ice in OT. It almost cost us the other night as well. They feasted on him that whole possession.
Groundhog Day
Quote:
Here comes some bs.
Quote:
Moar powerplayz for duh Flames. Must be nice.
Quote:
Go duck a sick refs.
Quote:
Yup. Flames and their patented late game comeback. What a ****ing joke.
Quote:
Pull the goalie with 3 mins left....and they ****ing score
Quote:
You gotta be kidding me.
Quote:
So ****ing lucky it’s ridiculous
Quote:
You’ve got to be kidding me .... What the hell seriously
Quote:
What an incredibly stupid shot block attempt by Demers on a weak routine save.
Quote:
Off the Yotes player of course .
We all know who scores next .
Quote:
Wtf happened.. it was just 3-1.
Quote:
Horseshoes for the 100th game in a row is what happened.
Quote:
Fat Phil is out there and he's exhausted.
Quote:
It was 3-1 are you ****ing kidding me this is the luckiest team in the league.
First the Nashville game and now this.
Quote:
These horseshoe up their a**es wannabe texans better not ever bi*** about an Oilers win again.
I wish Tkachuk was knocked into February with that "elbow". POS player. What a fluke victory
Quote:
why do people have that dirty rat POS's face as an avatar? Did you lose a bet? lol
Quote:
That was very sad to watch.
Quote:
I don’t even know why I bother to watch Flames games anymore .
These late game comebacks are not good for my mental health .
Quote:
Again, same team as last year. Not even mad, they're a good team for 5 minutes a game lol
Quote:
Vegas and Flames win.
Ducks are tied 2-2 in the third , Sharks are up 2-0, and Canucks are down 1-0.
God dammit.
