If this was against Florida, sure. But not against the Oilers. You should care if they lose to the Oilers no matter what.

Good period by the good guys. Should be up, but when the other team has a star like McLottery he’s gonna create some offence.

Still bitter they got him after three straight firsts.

Hope they keep it up. Strong defensively, 2 mistakes that both ended up in the back of the net.

Hate aside, McDavid speed is unreal. Hate that he is in Edmonton
It’s ok. He’ll be gone in 2 years tops

Goddamn, the PBP and commentary were bad! I had to watch the whole period on mute.

Can you imagine if the leafs won that draft and McDavid was in Toronto?? Edmonton is bad, but networks would literally stop covering the other Canadian teams

I feel confident the Flames will win if the game continues like this. The Flames generated a lot around the Oilers net.

2-2 on the ice, 3-1 on the panel.
The examples of McDavid’s “joyous” celebrations were when he scored a nice goal. In other words “I’m happy I made a nice play”, not “I’m happy the team scored”.

Better off for us if he stays. They have no ability to add depth.

Only 344 guys have ever played 1000 games in the NHL? Holy crap! That seems low. It’s a lot more of an exclusive club than I would have thought.

McDavid often celebrates like he won the Stanley cup...even when they are out of it

They did. Oilers are lucky to be tied, as they looked like garbage for at least 90% of that period. If the Flames can keep up their current play, they'll be just fine. Just gotta keep a close eye on McDoofus and don't give him too much space to wind up. Limit his chances and you'll win the game easily.

Always nice to get James Neal in the intermission. I wonder if it will be like when they interviewed Lucic in the last game and they will tell Neal they do not want to talk about the game but ask him to relive his best Calgary memories?
