Just needed refs to call more than one against the Flames opponent.

There used to be a cartoonist at Calgary Herald, who had inserted his wife's name "Olga" into each one of his cartoons. He would do it in an inconspicuous way, so that some effort was needed to find it. You should consider inserting "E=NG" in some form or another into each one of your gifs.

Those first three goals are absolute beauties.

When I was a kid, I had a soccer coach who reminded us that no matter how fast our opponents were, there was one thing they couldn't outrun: the ball. This may seem like an obvious lesson, but it amazes me how often it gets forgotten, even in pro sports.

The Flames would do well to internalize the related lesson they taught Dallas tonight. The Stars PK couldn't even follow the puck's movement, the Flames slung it around so quickly. I get so frustrated when the Flames' PP reverts to "draggy and holdy" rather than "passy and movey". Those one-touch passes are unbelievably effective: the puck has already gone before the defender has even had time to turn around. Excellent, excellent stuff.

This PP has MORE than enough talent to be at least as good as the (c)Oilers', if not better. Let's hope what we saw tonight is a sign of much more to come.

(Oh, and, Derek Ryan is an absolute underrated gem. Quickly becoming my favourite Flame--he's not flashy, but he just does SO many things well.)

Awesome win!! I think the Flames needed to punch Perry a few more times to make it the perfect game. Perry is a punk.

There have been a few references recently that people either didn't get or didn't mention.

E=NG never "hid" that just other subtle (or not) references, or just general stuff I like.

Had more PPs and burned them with it. So this is what it's like to be everyone who plays against the Flames.

Winaldo brings a much needed element that we are short on; forechecking with speed and size.

That causes turnovers, puts pressure on defenders and forces opposing teams in to less effective breakouts.

Lindholm can forecheck, Dube too, but they don’t hurt. Bennett at times, Rieder is too soft, Frolik is smart but not physical. The rest is just too slow or too small. This is why Ferland was so effective on this team, he added that missing element. We really lack foot speed and it is why Treliving needs to look to upgrade his top 9 forwards with a speedy and physical forward.

So I found a statement from Ward on scratching Dube on Reddit.
