We’re shorthanded - we may actually get a scoring chance!

Flames are being shown for what they are. A slow, undertalented team.
Yeah they are painfully mediocre. The fact that this core is largely locked up for 5+ years is depressing.

The Detroit color guy says no way that was a penalty.

The first one wasn't really his fault IMO. It wasn't an impossible save to make, but pretty high danger scoring chance from a player that has a high shooting percentage and is on fire at the moment.

The second goal was pretty lame though.

Should have traded Vladar when he had value.

That Wings powerplay looks slick as hell.

Vladar let's in a poor goal as we started to take control and a penalty gives them tons of momentum.

Flames seem to make Reimer look like a Vezina candidate but at the end of the day he's still Reimer. Game isn't out of reach yet.

I know there is a couple posters who think Huberdeau is doing fine but honestly for 10.5 million I'd like to see the guy win at least one game this year but I don't think it will happen.

They move the puck and go for bang-bang one timer plays all over the place.

Baffles me that the Flames don’t do that same. As much as it’s a roster problem, it’s not a roster problem. Detroit looks dangerous as hell with friggin’ Sprong lining up for one timers. It’s just good structure.

I disagree. This team has plenty of guys that can score and create offence, they just need to play the right system. I have no idea wtf this system even is. It looks almost like it gears around turning pucks over and not defending.

This exciting Detroit team, yeah who'd want to watch a team of young stars after a rebuild, like that.
