Are the Flames a legit draw in LA now? I’m surprised to see the bottom dwelling Kings with this packed house.

The one crappy thing about the Doughty thing is that Kings always come to play against the Flames

Maybe they realize it's one of the few guaranteed wins they have these days?

If Backlund had any sort of finish we'd be set at centre.

Kylington looks like things are just a bit too fast for him.

He was literally asking the referee for a penalty between each punch. Which is absolutely the right move.

Apparently the NHL doesn't give two ####s about unnecessary head shots.

Almost zero resemblance to the last 2 Flames games.

There are lots of issues with this team and one of them is Backlund's decline. Him no longer being a viable 2nd line center has really hurt the team.

Not the best game so far, but only down by 1 with a period to go. Just put in some nice effort for 20 minutes and you got this.

How much holding and hooking by LA until they actually make a call?? Brutal.

After the 2nd punch and the ref not doing anything, you then wind up and haymaker the kid. You don’t sit back and take it. Make the ref look like an idiot.

I was wondering how many punches he was going to get away with there.

Can't believe we're losing to these clowns. Hopefully the Flames will come out flying in the 3rd and get themselves back into this.

Yet they'll jump on most guys who actually want to fight.
