Was watching with some friends and we turned off TNT and went to Sportsnet midway through the 2nd. The announcers sounded uninterested in the teams playing, especially Jones. Rick Ball is an excellent play by play guy imo.
Intermissions were decent but when Anson Carter said Lindblom instead of Lindholm, I was rolling my eyes heavily.
I thought Jones and Olczyk were great although I didn't see the whole game. Third period was very well done IMO.

Yeah that was pretty awful. Someone on the panel should have called him out on that. He's the weak link there overall for sure.
This in regards to Carter saying Lindblom.
As others have mentioned, the Flames 4th line has been good with the addition of Carpenter. At the end of the game they were able to pin the Ducks top line and get an offensive zone whistle.
Markstrom made some great saves and was a factor tonight.
Top line good as usual. Dube and Mang skated well. Really happy with the game.
People were remarking about TNTs crystal clear footage.
Except SN uses the home teams broadcast for away games because of covid. They send no crew. So it was the same footage lolol.
I will say since I pull highlights from both broadcasts of every game, if the SNET broadcast has a SN watermark logo in the top right of the screen it's usually an inferior quality of the other broadcast for some reason.
But usually the 2 feeds are literally identical in terms of picture quality (and camera cuts / replays). It makes it easier for me to layer both feeds and mask out watermarks.

Markstrom was the difference but he’d be pretty disappointed he let both those goals in. He was thoroughly amazing all night though. Made quite a few saves that some other goalies wouldn’t have.
Thought Zadorov was awful. Like, Mackey next game please awful. This has been a trend for a little while.
Top line dominant again. For Gaudreau’s wallet’s sake I hope they can keep this up in the playoffs.
Really like the Coleman/Dubé/Ruzicka line. The Backlund line got the goals but I thought the Ruzicka line got the better chances. They were unlucky not to score.
Whole team came out sleeping in the first, great to see the turnaround in the 2nd. Also great to see them lock down a win in the 3rd, even though they gave up a few too many good chances.
Ducks fans are edmonton-level dumb, booing as soon as any of their players get touched. I don’t think they have a great grasp of the line between good defense and illegal obstruction.

Goddammit, not only is it an Alberta team, it's also a national broadcast. We're gonna listen to a bunch of rednecks suck up to Canadian beefers aren't we? sigh

Carrick asleep.

Dude Drysdale really thinks it's a good idea to pressure the point with one of the best scorers in the nhl wide open down low? A lot of people were out of position but that was a straight low iq play by Jamie.
Quote:
Dry got caught puck-watching from what it looked like. Also, Johnny Gaudreau is what Z could cap as if he never learned to play the defensive side of the puck.
Quote:
Paging mister Carrick and mister Milano, your applications to traffic cone school have been approved.

Drysdale might still be ripening and isn’t ready for big DZone minutes, but good lord, someone should be jailed for Shattenkirk vs. Calgary‘s top line

You can't blame me for not being excited about a guaranteed loss this season.

i don't care too much if we lose, i just want to not lose by over 2 goals tonight.
it's become too common

There's so little left to cheer for, I guess let's hope Zegras gets a point or two?

WELL HAVE OUR OWN NEW "PONDA CURSE".....WITH BLACKJACK AND HOOKERS!
Boy that Tyler Foli, lemme tell ya

Figures it's absolutely dead at work so I have a chance to watch the game and were losing 2-0. I swear I'm the curse
Quote:
A tough shift for Shattenkirk, a couple of turnovers [...]
Quote:
Yeah, that's just a normal shift for Shattenkirk.
Quote:
No guys, it's too early to start with the turnovers. We need to score first. STICK TO THE PLAN.
Quote:
”tough sequence for kevin shattenkirk“
no #### welcome to our world
Quote:
TNT hates the ducks lmfao
Quote:
I am not a fan of these TNT broadcasts, they sound so awkward
Quote:
Probably because they expect nobody to be watching. Ducks aren't in it and Flames have a local feed.
Quote:
We're leading in shots, and generating good chances in the opening frame. It looks like the plan to get blown out 6-0 is well under way.
Quote:
Shattenkirk making defensive errors? Who would have ####ing thunk it.
Quote:
Zegras is definitely amongst the worst defensive zone players in the nhl.

Okay, we never tied it.. not quite to plan. But here we go giving up at least one more in the last 2.

Will this game never end?

Every time the puck is in our zone it's chaos, we cannot play in our own zone at all lol
Quote:
Plan B2: Outshoot opponent Down by 1 to start third Give up one more goal early in 3rd
Tie it late in third
Give up game winning goal in the last 2 minutes at even strength
Quote:
Not sure how that isn't some form of interference from Stone, then Stone goes bar down so that's just how the games have been lately.
Quote:
Well that was easy.
Quote:
it seems like every time this team refuses to shoot it on net they get scored on. They deserve that until they learn
Quote:
Stolarz has to have that. Sigh
Quote:
What a blast
Quote:
We got scored on by basically their mascot so that’s cool
Quote:
That was a bomb
Chucky into the EN
Quote:
That was a terrible shift
Quote:
Pulling Stolie is a terrible idea. I'm just gonna put that out there.
Quote:
That might have been the laziest attempt at a late comeback I've seen in a while. Absolutely no urgency and sloppy play.
Quote:
what an absolute disaster.
Quote:
Fowler and shattenkirk defensively.... Yikes....

Hahahaha what the actual ****

This looks like a terribly Coached midget team.

Fowler ... smh... blind backhand pass with an EN.

Fowler ain't good enough for this. I'm so bitter about the TDL.
