Regular season stats from 4 months ago mean absolutely nothing. The fact of the matter is, this team is dangerous with no shortage of offensive weapons, and a stellar young blueliner in Heiskanen. You can never underestimate your opponents in playoffs. How many of us wanted the matchup against Colorado last year? How did that turn out? Only good teams play and advance in the playoffs. Dallas is a good team. Full stop.

He was just looking for an opportunity to trash the Flames.

So Calgary is a bad team. Full stop.

...which is the point I think he was trying to get across.

That was a better period though, so let's hope it continues.

I know the Flames have been outplayed again but jesus christ its 1-1 in game 5 of a tied series. This game thread is even more cancer than usual

Woah, I never said Dallas was a bad team at all. I just wish this team would have Cup aspirations instead of second round aspriations and this core is clearly not good enough. I’d rather take the gamble and rebuild.

After our best period in what feels like forever.

I’m not over confident going into the third, but I’m optimistic.

It was bound to happen, I just didn't think it would be a major drop off from his Norris year. I would have thought the regression would have really happened next season.

Oh well, you've got to move past it. Hopefully Hanifin begins to step up and Valimaki next season can push Giordano to the bottom pairing.

Giordano can still be logging minutes on the PK and PP2, but Ward or new coach should really be limiting his 5v5 time.

Still haven't had the 8 year - but that 12 year is delicious.

Fair enough, but why not enjoy the game it is 1 to 1 instead of talking about rebuilds?

Saw that coming. Stupid little plays in the own zone cost them again.
