[GT] Tkachuk and his goon squad vs Doughty and his babysitters.

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Getting some pressure now.

[Nammer403]

Good shift

[GioforPM]

Nice two shifts by 4 and 2 lines.

[MrMike]

What pressure keep it going!

[direwolf]

Epic shift by 3M. We're gonna score soon.

Lowest scoring center on the team since the all-star break

Monahan
GP - 22
P - 15

Backlund
GP - 24
P - 17

Ryan
GP - 24
P - 16

Jankowski
GP - 7

So third, which is kinda shocking, but 15 points in 22 games isn't terrible. Most people wouldn't think it was that high TBH.

It's incredible Ryan and Backlund have provided such fantastic depth though. That's what you need. When a top player goes through a funk (use whatever word you'd like) those bottom players need to step but.. and boy have they.

Personally I think Monahan's poor play has been overstated here. When guys play poorly they're really under a microscope but regardless the support scoring from our 2 and 3 center is incredible.

Janko taking Monahan's spot?

I think he was just still out there from his shift Neal had just changed

I thought so too, but I think it was just a late change.

Yup. For a second Gaudreau was out with Neal and Janko on the change.

[TheScorpion]

Gaudreau looks really flat tonight.

[Duffalufagus]

I’d out Ryan up there if anything. Janko has been pedestrian for most of the year

[Toonage]

Confident the Flames are going to put one in here soon

[JurassicTunga12]

Flames get 1 and the dam will break

[GioforPM]

[FanIn80]

I just turned the game on and I see it’s 24-9 shots but 1-0 score. Hooo boy.

I didn’t see the goal against. Was it another candidate for the Calgary wing of the Smithsonian?

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Another Kings PP?

Flames taking the game over, just stay out of the box, please.

[Duffalufagus]

2 minutes for hogging possession all period.

[MrMike]

good way to kill our momentum
