Talbot's starts have been so few and against tough competition or in difficult situations that they practically require perfection.

In short he's been fine.

I fear Flames are in for a monumental and embarrassing shellacking tonight, which could become the proverbial wake-up kick in the nuts and bottom of the season...

How many of these do they need to finally get going?

It's likely just gonna be another win where Flames lack a lot once again, and show no signs of playing well once again.

Understandably so. This one will also practically require perfection and I bet he gives them that. Let's see what the team gives him.

Poor Talbot. Probably unsure if he will get any run support whatsoever again.

Put him behind last year's team and he probably racks up some wins.

Apparently swapping out Hathaway, Smith and Neal makes this a totally different team, which makes no sense at all.

The mystery of what the Flames are continues..

I'm more afraid of our offense. They've been hot garbage lately.

Glad it's the second half of a back to back in Vegas. Means the boys likely didn't go out last night

Edit:wait it was an afternoon game yesterday. They probably got in early enough. ####

Vegas isn't doing so good right now either. This games a total coin flip. I for one would like to see Talbot get a W.

They should bench Frolik though for another guy.

just because the mood here is so down, the Flames are going to come out and blow the doors off with a 7-4 win

I think it will be tighter than many of us think... but in the end Knights win.

Yes, put Dillon Dube on the 2nd line instead of as a grinder on the 4th line.
Give him a chance to show if he can handle it.

Puttin this here because it doesnt need its own thread;

When your team scores 8 goals in the 2nd period..........and you still need OT to win!

If the Flames come out and play for 60 min, any outcome is ok. I just want to watch a complete effort tonight.
