Generally entertaining to watch I’d add.

Colour me surprised with the last two wins.

Didn't expect them to come back to action against a couple of middling teams and show that they're the better group.

I attribute this to the coach. He's doing a good job in a difficult situation full of potential distractions.

I'm afraid to play the schedule card after last season but their toughest stretches are certainly behind them...they played some really good teams really hard, trick will be keeping the effort up every single night. With this kinda goaltending they are better than 50% to win each night.

The next 5 games are winnable.

The schedule between now and the all star break is not horrible.

Hope springs eternal.

Nice to see the Flames win again.

Coleman made me laugh a little on the EN goal. Has Weegar wide open and would rather score. I think he likes being the goal leader on the team.

GWGs should be reserved for goals that break a tie, and the other team doesn't score again. Really happy for Huby and the win, but I will die on this hill.
So the Flames win the game by scoring more goals, but there would be no game winning goal?

1 GWG doesnt eradicate all the rest of his shortcomings for ~100 or so games.

Did someone say it did?

No, someone said the definition of GWG needs to be changed. It was a silly thing to say.

For the record, my post was just reiterating a long held position that GWGs are not a clutch scoring indicator since you often don’t know when it’s scored that a goal will be one.
