Tanev is a g*****mn rock star. A defenseman who has the ability to play mcdingus hard. Him, eatbread favourite flames right now. Ritchie honourable mention. That was a Conor Mcgregor level punch. Love Sutter hockey.

Sutter calling McDavid 'head and shoulders' the best player. Tricky move to activate Connor's humbleness there. He shies away from praise so hard he'll end up giving every puck away just to prove him wrong.
Quote:
There was a great story about Sutter when he was in CGY. He purposely kept talking about Owen Nolan 24/7 in front of his players. How Owen Nolan is the best and how he plays the game right. Yada yada yada. All day.
The players then made a pact to f*** Owen Nolan up all game and they destroyed him lol. After the game in the locker room, the boys started yelling "Owne Nolan is sh**, f*** him" ,etc while Sutter left with a grin on his face lol
Hate to say this but a Sutter lead Flames team scares me. They’ve been playing a tight responsible defensive game. If Sutter game plan works there won’t be much room out there. I don’t doubt McDrai will be able to break through and ge their chances, but our other lines I could see being stifled.
Hugely important series coming up. We could either stomp out the Sutter effect or let the Flames right back in it.

Be prepared for a good old fashioned ass kicking from team Darryl Sutter. Maybe that will wake up some of the noodle brains that think the Oilers are a soundly built hockey club headed in the right direction. Probably not, someone will pull out the advanced stats to show Darryl Sutter can't coach hockey in the "new NHL" while our "weak ineffective supporting cast players" have us headed in the right direction because... some geeky fanboy's calculations said so.
4-2 Darryl Sutter, Milan Lucic with a pp goal and Sam Bennett with the empty netter
Quote:
I'm nervous.
It won't shock me if Calgary continues to play really strong for the next while now that they have Sutter coaching though I'm not sure if they can play that well the rest of the year. We had best be prepared for the Flames to be pushing full throttle against us the entire game. That team is angry and we will have to have our heads up. This game will not be a cake walk.
Quote:
My Oiler PTSD gut-feeling is fully expecting the Oilers to let the Flames back into this with two losses this week. Especially with the new coach bounce and the fact that Sutter will want to use this 2 game set against the Oilers as a spring board.

I’m so ####ing sick of refs with “let em play” mentality. It absolutely neuters our team. Calgary straight up molesting McDavid tonight

Just trip McDavid, it's fine, otherwise he'll just beat you.-Bieksa
Quote:
What a ####ing joke. McDavid gets sent flying off a trip no call and then that gets called.
Quote:
The Flames are going to be super dirty tonight. I think it’s going to be a #### show.
Quote:
Not only does "putting the whistles away" benefit the flames more with all the clutching of McDavid but when they do make a call it's on something weak like that...
Quote:
I love how the oilers always get called for that weak #### yet McDavid is held like that every shift.
Quote:
f***.... Brad Meier reffing again, f*** I hate him. Calgary's going to get away with lots of bull####.
Quote:
What kind of ref leeway will the bitter beer face earn? Flames gonna be bear hugging McDavid all night?
Quote:
I think the refs in the league need to be scrubbed and replaced man. This year seems to have been more brutal than most for absolute garbage calls.
I'm only a casual hockey fan, but good lord they call the most stupid #### this season.
Quote:
Haha McDavid gets both his legs sloe foot nothing. 30 seconds later…
Quote:
I will never understand how McDavid gets ass mangled and no call then had ready gets touched and it’s a call every ####ing time
Quote:
God, it’s like the flames are seriously going after mcdavids knees
Quote:
mcdavid tripped no call, typical
Quote:
Sutter effect has an effect on the refs too. Who knew.
Quote:
No call on McDavid getting tripped in open ice. Call one for the flames. Woof.

What the hell was that dirty swipe on Yamamoto by none other than Mark Kneeordano? That was pure garbage
Quote:
Gio probably checked the iPad to see where he could've put his knee
Quote:
Did kneeordano just injure yams?

Yammo also tripped by Kneeordani without the puck

So apparently Darryl Sutter and the flames are playing in the third game with darryl sutter behind the bench. The Darryl sutter coached flames are playing with darryl sutter like heart and played a darryl sutter first period.
Quote:
ice is tilting the wrong way right now
Quote:
The inability for our D to make breakout passes so far is giving me hives.

Oh here we go calgary tough guys now
Quote:
*** flames immediately go goon mode
Quote:
here comes the goon show now
Quote:
Sutter has the circus going full bore down there. Don't blame him, it's the only chance those slugs have at winning
Quote:
Are we on a PK???
Quote:
I miss Ward
Quote:
Oil kryptonite - hard aggressive forecheck. This game is trench warfare and being loosely officiated. They're going to need to shoot the puck on Markstrom. Yamamoto simply cannot give away prime shooting opportunities. Too much periphery play.
Quote:
shots 5-4
classic ###### hockey
Quote:
How is it the Flames can look a million times better with a couple practices under Sutter but Tippett can’t get these guys to make a clean pass after two years?
Quote:
i ####in hate that Sutter muppet. put your goddamn mask on right you dumb hick.
Quote:
f***ing Sutter hockey man. The Flames do look better structured under Sloth.
Quote:
Calgary playing real suffocating and hard hockey. They aren't generating chances either but they are completely shutting us down and wearing us out. Guys guys need to get something going. Second line needs to stop being so god damn useless.
Quote:
Is it just me or when opposing coaches blow sunshine up 97's ass, it kind of neutralizes him that game
Quote:
Flames are rolling us. It’s men versus boys right now.
Quote:
4th line with a little gumption there last shift.
Hockey is still a game with an element of physical intimidation, boys need to get ****ing hitting people and finishing every check.
Ritchie vs Khaira
Quote:
1 game for head contact, 1 game cause its against calgary, 2 games cause Khaira is an Oiler tax, 1 game cause of GST
Quote:
For f*** sakes Khaira is our best penalty killer .
Quote:
Khaira got clocked.
Quote:
Didn't need to take that fight.
Quote:
f***, Khaira seeing stars. Why does he feel the need to fight so much? Believe it or not, he's too important to do that.
Quote:
I did not Know ritchie was that tough
Quote:
I’ll say it again this is why we need Kassian back
Quote:
Khaira has to quit fighting.
And TD Forss is an amateur for not waiting until khaira was stable before allowing him to skate off. Pissed on both fronts
Quote:
Anyway for those who still believes fighting does nothing in the game.
I don't think we won a single puck battle or threw a hit since the fight.
Quote:
hate to say it but that Khaira fight set the tone for the game

Couple McGiveaways tonight

not sure what the point was of giving them momentum in a series where they had none
Quote:
mcdavid wants that back… but how are him and Nuge the first guys coming back?
Quote:
97 would probably like that one back
Quote:
Connor bro you better make up for that
Quote:
What the f*** was that?
Quote:
McDavid is garbage tonight, what the hell?
I'm not going to say it's over but it almost feels like it the way the Flames are locking this down. Ugly ugly game, extremely ugly
Quote:
How do the flames get a 2-0 there? Wtf.
Quote:
Well, looks like Connor's not having his best day..
Quote:
McDavid looks like garbage when not playing Ottawa wtf
Quote:
Where the F*** were our dmen there from that dumb play by McDavid?
I don't hear Barries name. Is he playing? I missed most of the first
Quote:
It was a bad turnover by McDavid, but where did Bear wander off to on the play?
Quote:
When McDavid and Nugent-Hopkins are the first two players back, that’s a pretty bad defensive breakdown.
The Swedish Connection
Quote:
Bear needs to see very little ice the rest of the night. Every time he's out there it's a tire fire.
Quote:
Seen this kind of play out of Bear way too much this season.
Quote:
Bear... just get the f***ing puck out Jesus Christ
Quote:
absolute garbage team performance up to this point in the game
Quote:
Bear with two bad giveaways.
Quote:

Ethan Bear is currently really bad at hockey.

Zero drive

Yup, incoming blow out.
Apparently these f***s can only score against f***ing Ottawa.
Quote:
NOBODY covering dickholm
We make it sooooo easy
meanwhile, we have to fight tooth and nail for a high danger chance

A well deserved 2-0 deficit. The Oilers are getting pumped.

Did that mother####er Francis just call Lagesson half a man!?
Quote:
Francis is a ####ing clown.
Quote:
I like how Francis is standing alone in the dark. No one likes him in Calgary either
Quote:
Eric Francis sure is a prick, looks like one too.
Quote:
I don’t even know what he said but I’m liking it and agreeing with you based on principle and his track record. Francis f***ing sucks.

Why would smith go out and just ####ing stare at it

Smith cashed in his only stupid move of the year card

Lagesson and Larsson both f***ing clueless

WHY THAT MORON GOES OUT OF HIS CREASE SO MUCH......
Quote:
What an absolutely gut wrenching time for Smith to do that .
Quote:
f***ing Smith, f***ing idiot
Quote:
Smith.
Just f*** off. Stay in your f***ing net.
Quote:
Why wouldn’t Smith just play that puck and gake a penalty rather then leave the net unoccupied. It’s like taking the pass interference penalty for db rather then allowing the td.
Quote:
Again, #### you, Smith.
Hanifin through a screen to win it

Are you ####ing serious...

I'm ####in angry now

Why is that dumb as f*** rocks for brains Bear even there?
it is a tie game
How do you get caught up that high?
Quote:
Darnell bested by Lucic.
Quote:
Getting walked by Lucic is waiver worthy lol
Quote:
This is on Bear. RNH came back. What is he supposed to do on a 3-2 with Nurse going for the star fish?
Quote:
Holy man, that was all Bear.
Like what is he doing? What an awful attempt at the red line.
Quote:
I swear when the game is close and we need big plays from him he craps all over himself.
Quote:
Should have gotten at least a point. The smith #### up and then Bear cost them a point. What a dumb ####ing pinch to make in a tie game in the third period. Tippet will lose his mind over a ####ing play like that. ####.
Quote:
McDavid doesn't draw a single penalty, flames get away with the hack and slash and we get penalties for 10-ply infractions. We made too many mistakes to get the win, but it doesn't help when the officials are watching a completely different game.
Quote:
These last two losses have really pissed me off beyond the usual disappointment for some reason
I think it just feels like we can only play against the senators, things just don’t go our way against anyone else. Really frustrating stuff.
Quote:
We'll always be mediocre with our current goalie situation, here's to hoping Stalock being the shining star we need in net.

I'll say I wasn't exactly pleased with the Tanev/Brodie-Hamonic swap. I was/am a big Brodie fan, and I didn't think Tanev was much of an upgrade on Hamonic.
I'll happily eat crow there. I don't know if I never really noticed before, or if he's just stepped up in a big way, but he is a hell of a player.
