Lucic has been fantastic all year long. I can only remember possibly one off game. He’s doing everything asked and expected from him. Tough, defensively sound, hard working. Love having him on this team.
We are definitely a better team for having him on it this year, especially considering it is a total reversal of what we saw from Neal previously I don't even want to imagine what kind of train wreck we'd have witnessed if Tre hadn't made that trade.
Let's hope his attitude, and work ethic are contagious!

This is the PGT after a win (I know you often down post in these) its usually about funny gifs and actually enjoying something for once on CP
There are plenty of places for you and the usual downers to complain about Lucic's contract
Nah, Lucic's contract sucks but I am not too worried. Its Backlund who is pretty awful and one of the most overrated players ever on the Flames. If you are going to call us out, at least get it right as the conversation was about Backlund

It's not a great contract for sure, but neither was Neals and when all you got is lemons you might as well make Lemonade.

I was probably the most critical person here on that deal but bad contract or not don't care at this point he's playing good hockey.
I watched Johnny closely I think his confidence is shot.
Of course one of the biggest Flames fanboy on this forum would post this. He brought up a good point. Not every fricken post in the PGT needs to be stupid GIFS.
Next win I think I'll pose 200MB gifs.

The guy has had ~30 bad games and now he is an all time bad Flame.
Ok

Go look at the post you quoted with the debbie downer gif...it was 100% about Lucic. Anyway it doesn't matter point remains
PGT after a win is not the place for constant negativity
Backlund is good enough to captain team Sweden to a gold medal at the worlds but overrated by Flames fans, got it

Looks like we will be getting Talbot tonight who's 4-7-0 on the season. Too bad we struggle with back ups for whatever reason.
Quote:
Hawks are the home teams an 7-3 in their L10 and the Flames are 4-5-1 in their L10 yet somehow still favored. And the oddsmakers know Talbot is starting.
woof.
Kaner Danger
Quote:
PP1 looked great aside from the usual no-move kane based approach
Quote:
That's like all they did though lol
Quote:
Kane looks over, sees Sikura and immediately shoots.
Quote:
He needs to learn to use Toews down low and stop stick handling so much. The other teams are probably like yup just like coach said just let him dance around over there and block the lane.
Quote:
He's good when people(including him) move..... which is pretty much never.
Quote:
Mmmm a drop pass just inside your own blue line. What could go wrong?
Quote:
Don't look now but Kane has been doing this for eons. He needs guys to go to the net and he'll get it there but his creativity gets lost when he is standing still on the PP.
Quote:
Everyone standing still while kane stick handles.
Quote:
Bad play by Kane
Quote:
****ing Kane there
Quote:
Kane just floating around now
Quote:
Kane with half ass effort all night.
Quote:
Take Kane off the power play now please. Or at least stop running the power play through him. He's a total detriment every time he steps on the ice for the man advantage. He works within a six foot circle THE ENTIRE ****ING POWER PLAY. Someone needs to grow some balls, sit down with him, and explain what he's doing wrong. He's a big boy, and he welcomes criticism. Obviously what he's doing isn't working, so FIX IT.
Kangaroo Knee

Strome to the locker room. ****
Quote:
The leg isn't supposed to go that way. Tough break.
Quote:
Ummm yeahhhh... legs should not bend that way
Quote:
Generational injury
Quote:
Yeah that doesn’t look good for Strome
Quote:
injury bug really hitting this team
Quote:
God in slow motion it looks even worse.
Quote:
Strome’s knee might be trashed.
Quote:
Can we seriously go a little stretch without a massive injury?
Quote:
Toews could crack a guys bone in 2 with a slash and be complaining on the way to the box.
Zebulon in 14 seconds

Whelp

Brilliant.

Wtf?

Just tuned in. Oof.
Quote:
...hey, we weren't ready yet.
Lets restart the 2nd period.
Quote:
Bad period so far to say the least
Quote:
Wake up you ****s
Quote:
Can we please stop leaving guys all alone in the slot?
Quote:
Hawks playing sloppy D in their zone. Tighten up boys
Quote:
Typical Hawks 2nd period fade/nothing...And of course 2 turnovers cost 2 goals against..Keith cost the 1st in the opening 14 seconds of that horror period of incompetence...and Murphy cost tgec2nd...sloppy with the puck and Not On The Same Page....Keith thought he would pass it to Toews who instead goes for a floating away to a circle float away from where he had to be to receive the puck...so definitely Keith and Toews not together on a should be somplecexit pass and out..so 1st of Linholm goals..Then on 2nd Lindholm goal..Murphy had tgenpuck and tries to pass up to exit but intercepted......another incompetent sloppy exit attempt that goes awry ...costing g a goal...2 sloppy not on same page ...so turned over and goals result.Inexcuseable from vet pros..
Intermission Edibles

No. Like gummies that were not legal in Illinois a week ago.

Ohohoohoh
Oh
Agent Smith
Quote:
Not sure what Smith is complaining about, you need to be in control of your stick. Beyond stupid.
Quote:
Damn, unlucky
Quote:
Smith pulling a Toews
Quote:
not sure why smith is so pissed off, that is a penalty
Quote:
Bad luck for Smith. Stick rode up Tkachuk's.
Quote:
This team is a defensive disaster.
Crow not great.
Can’t concrete on a breakaway to save their lives.
Smith careless with his twig. Twice
Nylander is a big pile of nothing
Cat apparently not playing tonite.
Quote:
All the more reason to win with the possibility of some point shaving **** wearing stripes.
Two 5 on 3's so far, lol.
Quote:
Hold on to your stick
Quote:
Hawks...insipid meek play..no hitting..and now another stick penalty to Hawks...2nd time Smith puts team down 5 on 3= hockey of Losers!
Quote:
Lol ****
Zebulon fires an M203 top shelf
Quote:
Good thing Gus is trying toe drags at the blue line. That will get em back in it
Quote:
Gustafson ####ed up a routine d to d pass that lead to that goal. I put this one on him. When are we gonna get rid of him?
Quote:
This has been a less than ideal last few minutes.
Quote:
This is right around the time where we blow it
Quote:
Oh Dach wtf
1) Kane gives him a pass to clear the zone and he doesn’t even reach for it
2) then he shoots the puck into his own net after the goal and Crawford literally tried to stop it. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that
3) then he gets checked and knocked on his ass after that
Yikes
Quote:
Two turnovers. Two Calgary goals.
So much for the PK momentum. Hawks making Talbot look Dryden-like. A nice deflection could turn things around
Hoping Strome isn’t hurt as bad as that looked; twisted his lower leg before going shoulder-first into the boards. Leg injuries are never good.
Quote:
Hawks did not deserve anything tonight...Kept to perimeter..no drive to the slot...Clearly did not want the points...another disappointing no show on home iice..
Too may invisible passengers and MIA supposed talents..
Kubalik showedxand tried his best ..but too may itgers did not show up...Insioid timod perimeter play.
No dangerous shots.
So CGY played the old disciplined STL collapse and box to perimeter game knowing no Hawks would dare go in to congestion the slot...so easy blocks and intercepts of perimeter shots and passes...If you want to collapse that bixcollapse to middle structure yo u nerd point shooters blasting g at their heads from the blue line.. then no player wants to risk hurting his head or neck from such a shot and they will start leaving more fee ice in the slot..but Hawks have no blasters fro the point to do that ...so I stead our low shots from the pii t and the perimeter shots get easily blocked or intercepted and we just cannot generate much.
Tge only way to disrupt that congestion tge middle defensive structure is to blast shots high at their heads..they at least will dick and get distracted for a few seconds Nd that leads yo chances IF our forwards then attack the rebounds in the slit area.But we are so fancy and timid and perimeter that we just do not do what is required to combat that structure.
The Usual Suspect
Quote:
Who threw the dirty hip on Dach after that second goal? He was already cheering that it was in
Quote:
Did Tkachuk just cheap shot Dach after the goal?
Quote:
Didn't see it posted, ridiculous this wasn't called
Dach still getting blasted but atleast this time it's cheap shots
Quote:
Yeah I really don’t get how that’s not a penalty
Quote:
No penalty by Tkachuk that's terrible reffing
Quote:
Dach gets tripped no call. Calgary comes the other way and Gus trips the dude. Penalty. Cool stuff!
Quote:
No repayment to Tkachuk 10 minutes in.
Weak.
Quote:
Can someone explain why Tkachuk is still in the game
That hit on Dach way after the goal should have ended his night

C’mon, Kirby. You’re faster than that. Also, wtf does Lucic have against Murphy?

Lucic is just a sack of ####

Oh my god lucic is so bad

Obvious aside , just seems like any time he’s made contact in the last two games against Calgary, it’s been on Murphy.

Well of course we're only gonna score once when we barely shoot the ####ing puck in the offensive zone.
I feel like I was screaming "SHOOT!!!!" all ####ing game.

SHOOT. THE. PUCK.

WHY DO WE ALWAYS LOSE THE IMPORTANT GAMES AGAINST THE TEAMS WE'RE ####ING CHASING FOR A PLAYOFF SPOT?! I can't watch this #### anymore. Too frustrating.

Quote:
The result you expect with a bunch of AHLers and the most disappointing player in the NHL in the lineup
Quote:
they had 6 shots in the 3rd period. In a game they were down. At home. Against a non playoff team they are battling for a WC spot for. They scored 1 goal.
I wouldn’t call that playing a good game.

2 man advantage for CGY

Wow Flames trip a Hawk no call then the Hawks get a tripping penalty going the other way. garbage refs
Quote:
And now a SECOND 5 on 3 for the Flames in one game
I cannot remember the last time I seen one team get TWO 5 on 3's in the same game
Quote:
Gotta keep the officials scared --- scared of getting a crosscheck across the back from a Flame when they aren't looking.
Wideman effect.
Quote:
The refs were so scared to call anything on CGy the last half of that period.
Flames barely squeak by and they had 2 5 on 3's lol
Such a middling whatever team. I would not pay money to see anybody on their roster play.

Seeing guys saying having $10 million in the bottom six is a bad thing.
Role players playing their roles well are valuable, no matter how much they cost. As long as they help the team win hockey games, I don't care if they make $5.25 million and play on the fourth line.
The Blues last year had Alex Steen at $5.75 million and Tyler Bozak at $5 million playing in the bottom-six, didn't matter. They helped the team win. I don't care how much Backlund makes if he's an effective 3C
