I can only see Elliotte in one of those Victorian-era man blouses now.

Why would a person drive through Jasper to get to Denver?

Ron Maclean retire already.

i really thought the Flames weak minded approach of the past many years went away this year as they were resilient all year but you are correct, they were intimidated by a team with 2 great players and a lot of crap. that was weak

We'll never know how the series would have gone if Sutter had pulled Markstrom in game one and given Vladar a chance like Badnar did with Francousz.

[looooob]

Ron begging for an additional fine only for Kane, one he'd probably pay for him

[PegCityFlamesFan]

Ron Maclean is a ####ing Oilers Muppet. How far up this clowns ass is Katz?

Kane should be done for the series and then some. Schiefele got 4 for chasing down a guy and delivering an awful hit. That's a blindside neck breaker.

Sure, but that isn’t what happened in Colorado. Kuemper pulled himself with vision problems, and he’s out indefinitely.

Instead - Mike Smith. Who they chose to go with when they didn’t have to.

Bravo.

Smith was the only reason that game was not 6-2 or 7-2. The Oilers lost because their team sucks.

It was a sad showing from the Flames. If they had dug deep like they did vs Dallas they could've handled these guys easily.

Got conned into thinking the team they were facing were more than scrubs. They were always scrubs.

If the Flames had an average'ish goaltending performance in Round 2, they would likely be in Round 3. Say if they had a showing like Francouz is having so far in this series haha.

If there was an actual code book for "the code" it wouldn't matter because Kassian reads at a 2nd grade level.

[3rd liner]

Suck it oilers. Your washed up sieve of a goalie strikes again. And your scumbag acquisition Kane should be suspended for next game.

Key killer goals against. Over and over and over.

Don’t be fooled!

Bednar didn't have a choice though.

[GioforPM]

Nurse: all their goals were lucky bounces.

Yeah, you bounced one in off your stick and Bouchard bounced off the ice.

I lost track of how many Oiler goals against Calgary were luck, but it was a lot.

[djsFlames]

Its funny how Bieksa is being light hearted doing his job and cracking jokes post game, while Ron is somber and giving off funeral vibes. You're the host, not the cheeerleading captain. Way too invested in the team he's pulling for.
