even if it wasn't the Flames you guys do realize the Oilers are a few losses away from squandering the McDavid era

all their games are glorious opportunities to hope they lose

Sure, I watched some games at home, and some at various bars, but the best ones were at my mom's place.
Of course, in 2005 there was no hockey, and in 2006 when the playoffs started my mom was on her fourth and ultimately final battle with cancer. She was in a hospice now, and we tried to watch games, but mom was tired and slept a lot, and the Flames' series with Anaheim was only a small part of that horrible spring.
I went over one day, one of the last days, and some other family members were there - distant ones, out-of-towners - and mom was wearing an oiler jersey, and they were all going to cheer for edmonton as they played Anaheim in round 2. I was invited to stay, and my mom whispered that I should stay, and cheer along with them.
I left.
There is absolutely no scenario where I will cheer for the oilers, and to cheer for a Flames loss against them should be a jailable offence.

that took a turn, sorry for your loss

GL to whoever tries to put an Oiler jersey on me in my final days because your coming with me

[gvitaly]

I'd love to see some of our forwards get the monkey off their back this game. Here's to a good back and forth battle. Hopefully the officials won't be the ones to decide it. I'm cheering for the beginning of a long winning streak.

Good if GG takes over.

You can lose the next 5 games, just win this one and make the Oilers look bad.

[dino7c]

I also find the "same-same" talk about the Oilers and Flames poor starts hilarious

these same clowns who unanimously picked the Oilers to win the ####ing cup lol. They have maybe 2 years of McDrai left and this is one of them. They are on the brink of squandering the biggest and most undeserved gift in NHL history.

Flames are...similar to last season so far

[TheChief]

I think my fav flames player Bread is gonna have a game tonight.


Still waiting for my lines...


Mangiapane - Kadri - Sharangovich
Huberdeau - Lindholm -Duehr
Coleman -Backlund - Coronato

[kermitology]

McAvi is in? 8-1 Oilers with a historic number of power plays. There is no way the league allows Calgary to win.

If McAvi wasn’t in the lineup it would be 0-0 with the shots being 12-16 and they’d run out of shooters in the shootout for the first time in history.

Guaranteed loss though now.

[kukkudo]

If McDavid is in this will be a blowout, league ain’t letting the Flames win this one. 5 power plays minimum coming up.

[Cecil Terwilliger]

Yeah 8-1 Oilers sounds about right. Mcdavid with 5 pts.

[dino7c]

people laugh at the conspiracy stuff but we all know damn well the Oilers are getting all the calls

Be patient, with how much Huska juggles lines constantly we are bound to see it at some point.

[butterfly]

If only the late, great Connie Mack knew who his present day namesake would be.

[Goriders]

Time for the flames to walk the walk. Too much talk lately.

Just win the game!

5 seems low. I predict they’ll get at least 7 or 8 with a 5 on 3 in there somewhere.

[dino7c]

Oilers should be heavy favourites, consensus cup contenders vs. the Flames missing their best dman

should the Oilers pull it out though it was be all about their amazing resolve to turn their season around lol

[looooob]

I'm sure it's covered already but the powerplays in one thing. I'd imagine there is a 75% chance of a penalty shot, if not multiple for 97 tonight

[dino7c]

I swear to god if that clown wins it in OT or in a SO its rigged

miraculous recovery

Probably a PP in OT. Flames get a penalty because of a gust of wind and a cloud blocking the sun.
