Lucic with the forecheck against two MTL players and coming up with a sweet setup. Dube so close!

Also looks like there's Flames players all over the ice. It's nice.

I just turned it on before Leivo scored. Have the Flames been playing this good all night?

The puck is moving fast out of the d-zone

Doesn't feel like I'm watching the Flames.

I have no complaints, none, half a game in. What is life.

The defencemen are wasting absolutely no time in getting the puck going North. My god is this refreshing to watch.

Most notable difference. Not hemmed in for five straight minutes

Dube may have the best wrist shot velocity on the team.

So much better when we don't allow the other team to dictate the game pace.

I don't care if we grind out 2-1 games this way. It's so nice and stress free. Like a warm blanket.

Under Ward it felt more like the first Saw movie. Chained to the cold ground watching godawful hockey and seriously contemplating sawing your leg off just to get away.

At this pace the Habs have to wear down soon.

I know Montreal figuratively just got off the plane before this game but damn do the Flames look fast

Much better. See who can keep it up after a few games.

this is, by far, the best hockey the Flames have played since that game two years ago against the Islanders when the Bennett-Jankowski-Czarnik line dominated.

Two whole years since they played this level of hockey.

There have been a lot of nice changes, but this is the biggest change. They are moving the puck out of the zone, and hitting people that are skating north (instead of standing still in the neutral zone).

Moving the puck forward is resulting in lots of o-zone time

Just better hockey
