Fewer posts after a win than a loss. What an odd message board

When the team shows up and plays to their ability there’s not an awful lot to say other than pure praise...although I do miss the days of the gifsplosions after wins.

You should tell that to one of the biggest trolls of this board. What is the point of his immature post?

The foundation of the team's success today was coming out in the first period to play a simpler game with more speed and agression. That really let them settle in and get some more control. Skill players then did their parts today by going to the slot more.

I hope they can just do the same next game. Start with doing the simple things well, then build on it.

Weren't they incapable of that 24 hours ago according to everyone here?

Or did we overreact.

Maybe. Just maybe?

No. You are wrong here.

Every opinion must be scrutinised and dissected to reveal the value and accuracy of it's truth claims.

We are all better for it.

Really solid win.

Loved the way they pushed the puck forward all game and got in on the forecheck.

More importantly, some execution and finish.

Please do the same thing on Thursday

Opinions have nothing to do with truth. They are opinions.

Are you seriously that dense?

Burke just said he loved Ferland spearing then Wild player the other night.

Contrast that with how much he disliked the Bennett hit - Burke has lost it. He’s now just filling the role of blabbering old dude on the HNIC panel. Good job, Burke.

I said yesterday that today was the measuring stick, not game 2. Jets came out hard pushing back and fair enough Flames got flustered and the Refs played a part role in ensuring the outcome.

How they responded to that would measure them as a team. I said if they routed the Jets they will win in 4.

Jets have no wind in their sails right now. Just felt like a beaten team late in the 3rd.

Does this mean Calgary will win next round. We’ll see, but I think they answered the right questions for this one.

While Hellebuyck has been good in the series he hasn't been the factor I thought he would be with 10 goals against in 3 games.


Flames played a great road game tonight, I liked the pressure, the urgency and the breakouts a lot more.


I would expect that no matter what Laine is back on Thursday, there's no way he's sitting out an elimination game

Are you honestly this devoid of humour? How can you possibly be this upset after such a convincing win? You made a typo that has some pretty good traction for re-posting. Lighten up.

Great game tonight from the top 6. A bit surprised that they got going in the game where the Jets held the match up advantage.

Please come out and show some killer instinct on Thursday, Flames are the better team right now and don’t want this coming down to a toss up game 5.

That has been the Flames modus operundi this year. For whatever reason, they have been a dominant road team—one of the best in the League.
