[GT] Flames at Jets: Preseason Game 7

[USflamesfan]

How many times are the announcers going to say the score emphatically? Geez

[bubbsy]

I think that the huberdaeu on the pk experiment will be over pretty damn quick here.


I'm not liking how the top two f lines haven't generated goals this preseason.

Wouldn't stop bothering this couple beside me and making comments about how racist he is. The guy was a person of color too (from the couple beside me). Really ####ty experience.

But, it was nice to see the warmup and be up close to the team We were third row behind Vladar for the first period.

Sorry to hear that, arenas need to deal with that kinda stuff better.

I was joking about calling the game because this pbp guy sounds like a ticking time bomb but who can blame him with the Jets minutes away from winning game 7 of the cup final

[Patek23]

Wolf looks very reactionary and not in position often. Although tough to blame him for a couple of the goals tonight. It's my first time watching him but have to wonder if he'd ever be able to adjust to the jump from AHL to NHL. Especially with his smaller stature.

Can't make any assumptions out of preseason though, but just my first thoughts actually getting a chance to watch him.

[CroFlames]

Have there been any “I’m done with this team” posts yet?

[Mass_nerder]

I haven't watched much of Wolf, but he's not big enough to have bad positioning.

[gvitaly]

Kadri has been great winning faceoffs to start a PP.

[tony-soprano]

I’m done with this team..

until tomorrow.

[activeStick]

Ooof damn. Step out after the 1st and this is what happens?

[dino7c]

Flames have created a lot this period...Rittich is having his one great game he has every 10 starts

[CF84]

This game is yucky...The top line doesn't seem to have any chemistry at all and the third line is so weak without Backlund. I'm not at all a fan of Toffoli on the top line.

I'd like to see them try a top six of:
Huberdeau - Lindholm - Mangiapane
Dube - Kadri - Toffoli

I'm a fan of the way the second line looks right now though.

[TrentCrimmIndependent]

the fact that rittich is vezina quality tonight tells you how much weight you need to put into this game . he is middling back up every other day of the week

[USflamesfan]

THe top line on the last powerplay looked good.

[midniteowl]

We need someone who is ready for Huberdeau's passes at all time.

[Reggie Dunlop]

Rittich's going to do his "Salt Bae" impression, isn't he?

Last 3 power plays they have a post and 2 or 3 point blank setups

[PaperBagger'14]

This is one of those games where after the end of the 2nd period you knew we weren't going to win, but wished for 1 goal to save some pride

[FanIn80]

We’re losing 5-0 with our regular lineup minus Backlund and Markstrom… to WPG? Yikes.

Let's make Big Save Dave who has barely looked like an NHL goalie in all the games I saw him last year look like an early Vezina candidate.
