“Sometimes it just goes your way, but I think we did a good job on the power play, found some goals to get us back in there in the second,” said Gaudreau, who praised Brodie for making a great move to set him up for the winning goal late in the second period. “He did his magic. He walked the defenseman and sent it to me backdoor for a wide open tap-in. It’s a great play by him. Great vision.” Reuters.com

And so Brandon Tanev is on the 4th line until The End of Days.

Tanev makin things happen. This was one of the signs of the apocalypse, right?
Quote:
Of course one of his 2 goals needs to happen tonight
Quote:
Haha. That's ****ing priceless. Tanev.

Great goal by Tanev!
Edit: are some people in here seriously unhappy that Tanev scored?
Brodie’s 1st

The hockey gods giveth...
Quote:
well, at least we were able to nullify the almost guaranteed goal when we go on the kill.
Quote:
Why was Tanev ducking on that shot
Quote:
So we signed Mason for how many seasons?
Quote:
Pause the play just before the shot and you'll see the 4 Jet players again lined up in a straight line in front of Mason. Same as last game.
Quote:
It's nice the way our guys line up in a straight line to help screen our own goalie!
Brodie and Ferland Boblieving like it’s 2014-15

Bad feeling
Playing with fire or technically flames

To me Mason looks like he is a bit suprised how bad we are defensivly. I don't think he has ever seen anything like these past 2 games
Quote:
The PK will kill us all

This would be like 7-0 against a decent team.

Why are we getting so friggin cute in the neutral zone?

I am lost for words on the PK. Who's idea is this? What are they doing?

Is it normal to feel puckering in my butt whenever opposing players come up with a scoring chance off the rush? I swear, I've never seen such discordant and disharmonized defense before. Holy ****.

He's burning Mason to teach the team a lesson. Harsh but neccessary. This is all on the team.

That was legit pathetic

Does this team even have a ####ing system?
It looks like everyone just does their own thing
Quote:
Cue..... Yakety Sax
I’m thinking Maurice is fired by game 25!
Quote:
The first game we played like ten good minutes and then caved. We upgrade that in the second game to playing ok for one period and then take a friggin dirt nap? The coaches need to eat a slap.

Well, that's all of this **** that I need to see tonight. Turning that off. Wake me up when we finally get a real coach.

Something something second period....

I just have no idea how you are losing this game by 2 goals. The defence, either the players or the coaches, is pathetic.
Quote:
Mason's Winnipeg start
5 goals 20 shots
5 goals 28 shots
This is insane
Quote:
What a spectacular #####fest
Just imagine the score if Jets hadn’t emphasized defensive play in pre-season.
Quote:
A family member asked who else but Maurice could coach this team, and I answered that an online poll would be preferable.
It's getting pretty close to not even a joke.
Something something 3rd period

Hahaaahaaaa. You can't make this **** up!

Say what you want, but this team has ****ing quit tonight.
Quote:
Not only are we losing but the Dome popcorn just greased up my jersey. God damn it.
Quote:
That was amazing. FFS boys.
Quote:
Sooooo
Who’s available as a head coach?
I’m thinking that if this much time was spent on defensive play, and I’m assuming that much more is to follow, then it could be possible that the team
1) has given up on Mo or other coaches
2)is incapable of following directions
3) have been given the wrong directions
4) have no direction
Only game two but 5 unanswered goals ….
Quote:
Well.
Can’t fire the players, so you have to fire the coach. We’ll be there soon enough.

Are we the Avalanche of the 17-18 season? Will Maurice break the loss record with clean 0-9 record? Find out in the next episode of #risetogether

Good win, Flames dominated from middle of the 2nd onwards.
Johnny and Brodie with the accolades tonight, and well deserved. I think the unsung guy was Hamonic. Guy was steady on the back end, which allowed Brodie to jump up into the play a lot more.
Man that was a fun game. Jagr didn't even play and he still stole the show!
Gaudreau and Brodie were freakin' fantastic!
Smith looked solid, tough to pin any of the goals on him.
Where was that Lazar in the pre-season? More of that please.
Really liked the line changes Gully made. Thought that seemed to shake the team up a bit. I think this team has the potential to surprise a lot of people this year.
We're winning the next game in Anaheim. It's going to happen.
Gotta say this was the first time I've seen an entire crowd go dead silent for the Moment of Silence for Vegas/Edmonton. Props to all the Fans tonight for showing some respect and not yelling during it.
Even the bar I was watching the game at did the same thing. Couple dudes even took their hats off.
A real shame it takes a horrible tragedy like that to bring us all together. But it was really cool to see.

Reading through the thread and all the suggested line combinations really points out how deep this roster is. There are so many combinations that look good and so many players that are interchangeable, it's an embarrassment of riches. I almost don't even want to trade Brouwer but instead have him, Stajan and Hathaway as a revolving door of which one plays on any given night and as injury reserves. Then bring up Jankowski as a lock until proven otherwise.
If they can get it together like tonight, and hold it together, this team should be a force. I don't know if there's another team in the league as deep throughout all 4 lines and even 2 extra forwards. It really shouldn't matter that we would have $7 mil sitting out if Stajan and Brouwer are scratched, it all fits under the cap for the year so might as well ice the best team we can each night.
Nice moment at the end when Brodie was coming off. First Hamilton offers him to let stay on, Brodie shakes him off and heads to the bench. Gio skates over and practically drags Brodie onto the ice for one last try for the hat trick. The crowd loved it
Seemed like every other player on the team was working to get Brodie the hat trick nearing the end of the game,looked like Gaudreau had a couple of good opportunities for himself but did what he could to set up TJ. Hopefully that is
a sign of some good team chemistry starting to gel and they will start to stand up and take charge together.
I live on the east coast, so I went to bed after the first when it was 3-1. I woke up to a 6-3 win.
That means, in the four periods of hockey I've watched so far this year the Flames have been outscored 6-1. In the two periods I haven't watched, they've outscored their opponents 5-0. I think I know what I have to do.

Glass has admittedly not been that bad but I still think I liked what I saw from hathaway last game and feel like he could do everything that Glass does but is younger, faster, better etc.
Can’t imagine the motor this team would play with if we could just switch out the 4th line
That 4th line has as much ability to put pucks in the net as anyone and can also crash and bang if required like most 4th lines. Make the room happen Brad.
