Screw the Battle of Alberta. This has been the most exciting game of the season, bar none.

It's amazing that they can still win this game.

One good period, steal the 2 points and get out of town.

I getting the impression that this will be remembered as the season of excuses, and forgettable. when it’s all said and done.

one shift at the end with Bennett and Tkachuk, and it caused a scrum. This should be a regular line.

No thanks. Bennett will just slow him down.

Can we please stop with the Backlund RW experiment. It just isn't working. Put Dube or even Ryan there or something and let Backlund play where he belongs, 3rd line C.

Pretty sure I saw the one ref signalling offsetting minors. Bet we start the third 4 on 4

Hope they come out with some different lines for the 3rd. I liked some of what I saw the game where they had Dube up on the first line with Johnny and Monahan, and Tkachuk-Lindholm-Lucic. Then Bennett/Mangiapane-Ryan-Backlund.

I like it when the Flames deserve to lose, but have a good 5 minute span and in the game.

Well they just need to win one period and they will get at least one point out of this one.

Credit to Montreal for a hard fought game so far. They are playing fast and responsibly and controlling the game.

I think the Flames need to get Price moving side to side. He's staring them down pretty well on good chances when he can cut down the angle.

I'm guessing that you're joking, as Bennett is twice as fast as Tkachuk. I think that Bennett could be a good defensive player on the line, and let Lindholm play more to the front of the net.

That and if Tkachuk gets under the oppositions skin, Tkachuk/Bennett would just be a lot of fun.

Hmm not liking the idea of us losing both games to the Habs.

Or a 5 on 3 for the Habs.

When did Bennett become good defensively?

Pretty sure most people in the GT last game we’re drinking. Therefore we all need to start drinking to recapture the magic.
