Go Flames Go!


Could have been worse I guess. Was feeling pretty dire for a stretch after the goal sitting on 1 shot. Pathetic attempt at at powerplay too. Looked like more intensity at the end thankfully.

1 period in, now I can see that terrible jets defence and obvious weakness everyone has been talking about.

Slow start but building momentum. Need to keep going.

I'm at least 15 minutes behind, but the waive out was weird. The other linesman blew it. I'm not sure if it's because the Flames were slow/late bringing out their guys? Or because of how they were lined up?

Tiny thing, but lead to a goal within seconds...

The Jets are going to be in serious trouble once Johnny, Sean and Elias get their first shift of the night.

I guess it could have been worse but that was pretty much what I expected so far. This team lost its mojo a while back and it hasn’t changed much since. Hopefully they can build some actual momentum in the second

Other than the PK, that was an incredibly disappointing start for the Flames. They'd better find another gear quickly, or this will be a very short series.

We went from 1 shot to 9 shots without having a single scoring chance or opportunity.

Can someone tell me if Flames goals are legal or also banned by the new bylaw that took effect today? Cuz I can't tell.

They need to play the body a bit more. In the final 5 I saw many times they let up when they should have finished their checks. This is not a normal play-in series every hit matters.

That's pretty easy to do when the forwards are putting pretty much no pressure on them.

I like 4th liners with cement hands to hit like cement trucks.

I didn't even know if Monahan was playing.

I'm doing as much as the Jets' defence is when it comes to keeping the flames to the outside.

Could have been worse! We play better in the 2nd and 3rd anyway.
