That would have been raved as an awesome pass to hudler back door if it didn't get picked out of the air. It was a bad goal by ramo... Not going to blame Johnny for that.

Galchenyuk's goal in the SO was dirrrrrty

if every single person disagrees with you, you just might be wrong this time

Even Gio just said they had a good period

I don't even remember that particular play but in general he turns over the puck too much, no question about that in my mind. It's not just by-product of being a high-skill player.

Well, I concede. Obviously I saw things differently.

[corporatejay]

That goal is entirely on ramo

How many beers? lol

they had Zero hits, if they were skating they would have probably had one at least

The score should be 1-0 for the Flames based on chances in the first period. Miller kept them at bay.

Mostly the comments about pulling him and the general assertion that he's a terrible goalie. He wasn't so terrible when he was putting up back to back shutouts earlier was he? Seriously though, 1 weak goal in the 1st period after not starting for a month, give the guy a break. He has shown on multiple occasions that he can steal us some games. I hate people dumping all over a guy hard after 1 softy. A softy after Johnny had a terrible turnover.

6 or so...

Maybe just focusing on the bad plays I saw. On to the second.

[stone hands]

I like the atmosphere when the Canucks are in the dome, but boy oh boy are most of the fans ####lords

I agree - pleasant surprise.

Flames can easily win this. Canucks looked tired. This is their 3rd game in 4 nights. Flames just have to bury some chances.

[expatflame]

Outhit the Nucks 9-0 in the 1st

[cupraisedn89]

Doing a good job getting shots on the net that's for damn sure

[Texas Blueliner]

I think the Flames outplayed them that period, but Miller was outstanding. Hope we can get one in off a skate or something.

What's with this lack of finish tonight?
