This team is a mystery. Embarrass themselves against a bottom feeder one night, and then they're demolishing an elite team the next. It's absolutely baffling.

Where has Ricardo been? Has anyone done a welfare check? Did I block him and forget about it?

Yeah I definitely didn't expect a touchdown, especially after VGK scored the 2nd goal. I had that feeling of here we go again. They did pull through, and got a couple of bounces they haven't been getting most of the year.

Also, Quick was terrible this game, and when was the last time a goalie was truly bad against us? The forwards can use all the mojo they can get right now to hopefully get on a roll.

Flames now may end up with 6 20 goal men (and likely need to to push for a playoff spot) but unless one of them goes off it won't include 10 and 88


who'd have thunk it?

I think the regular season success of last year disheartened him.

Arizona has way more home wins than Vegas this year. Mystery solved.

Same with Lindholm. Just garbage. So disinterested.

I almost really don't want the Oilers to line up Vegas as the away team in the first round.

I think Vegas is potentially one of the more vulnerable home ice matchups out there.

Hope they can stay ahead of LA, but the Kings are on a tear right now.

There’s the Jonathan Quick who stunk in LA this year. Obviously not entirely his fault, but his undefeated run had to end…

I wonder what's going on with their home record this year? That building used to spell certain death for any team that went in there.

Yeah, I wish they had a stronger schedule to finish.

Don't give me hope.

I'm starting to think that LA might be the team to beat in the west. They appear to have that magic ingredient this year.

Credit to Toffoli and Backlund for carrying the offence these last few weeks, and to Markstrom for turning his game around. Would love to see Kadri, Huberdeau and Mangiapane step up down this stretch. We're seeing signs from the latter two so that's promising but will need more. And Kadri please get going.

Well, if Winnipeg isn't going to get their #### together, better Flames than Predators

They were scoring at a high clip, just needed to keep the puck out of their net better. Goaltending upgrade was the missing ingredient to put them on the next level.

Korpisalo was standing on his head in Columbus all season.

.929 with the Kings
