I expect a similar game to the first game of the playoff series. Lots of action and a huge scoring affair.

Nurse was very happy to tell everyone he was hurt after game 4 against Colorado.

First game of the season for me that I can watch. Just win against these losers, need to set the tone for the rest of the year.

Ideally you want Vladar to improve enough that he displaces Markstrom in a year or two then trade him. Bring up Wolf as a backup if he continues to improve. That would be the best case scenario imo.

Let's go Flames! Wipe the floor with them! I won't be happy until the other team cries and pees in their pants a little!

Thanked particularly for this.
I am, for various weird reasons, a bit of a Byzantine history buff. This was unquestionably the most heated sporting rivalry of all time. The Blues and Greens each had what we would now call farm teams throughout the empire, and in every major city, I have read, people cheered for one team or the other to express their political or religious affiliations. It wasn't just Constantinople; the whole Byzantine Empire could have gone up like tinder if that insurrection had spread.
Plus, chariot racing was one of the most badass sports of all time. It was kind of like chuckwagon racing, but without the outriders, and with NASCAR-style crashes and occasional weapons. Dirty drivers used to whip the opposing team's horses just before a turn, making them panic and stampede right into the outside wall. This got you disqualified if you were caught, but it also put your opponent in hospital, so charioteers were often tempted by the tradeoff.

A bit off topic, but am wondering if this Mariners Astros game is going to end before the Flames game starts!

Sure, but what do you do if team desparate for a goaltender makes you an offer you can't refuse...

We're talking about ancient chariot races in a BOA thread, and you're worried about going off topic? Relax!
