That was better than the 1st period!

And who had Leivo-Bennett-Ryan as a line with instant chemistry? Nobody. Solid solid work by them so far tonight.

With the exception of the Gaidreau line the Flames are filling in the open ice gaps that lead the opposition to sustained o zone time. Really nice work.

Gaudreau and Monahan are going to need some time to get their feet under them with Sutter. I forsee some lost icetime for a while, while they figure it out.

But thank the gods that the Bennett line looks good to go for a push.

2/3 periods of solid play. Can they go for the trifecta?

Playing with Johnny is not easy because you are not going to know what he will do next. He can go full speed on his own or he could circle back at the board and look for the trailer. Monahan falls victim to that a lot.

No top line of note and still putting up a clinic.
Tired or not, Montreal had nothing going.

And only game 1. Give it a few more to get the legs under the.

I like Ryan Leslie but that was a Gene Principe-esque question

Yeah. There's a few of these guys that could probably use some target practice.

The Flames are 20 minutes away from a 60 minute effort.

Good 40 so far other than the Toffoli chance pretty much we outworked the Habs. Go Flames Go in the third.

Flames are finishing their checks. Like I've been saying for the past few weeks, they don't have to be smashing guys, but they have to be aggressive enough on the forecheck to force the opposition into making mistakes...... and stop with the flybys!

I'm not seeing flybys tonight. Every puck is contested. There's plenty of talent on this team.

Not a huge surprise to those who believe the core players have been the biggest reason for this team's struggles that they're the ones having trouble adjusting a faster pace of play.

Tkachuk, Gaudreau, and Monahan have provided nothing tonight. Lindholm’s only gold star moment was the shot block on the PK.

According to Tyler Toffoli, the Flames aren't doing anything. 40 good minutes. Let's see 60. Go Flames!
