Agreed, my bad (for my part). But good luck with the sentiment.

True. I’m just happy to see both teams in the second round, with a chance to go the distance.

I wish these teams were set to meet in the conference finals instead. I don't want either of them to go out this round.

Honestly it's not going to happen.

Tkachuk and Bennett are two of the highest picks in Flames history that are having playoff success for another team while they are still in their prime.

It would be ridiculous to expect a Calgary Flames fan site to not be talking about that and just focusing on the series

It's also ridiculous for the same guy to continue beating the Huberdeau is the worst and most unlikeable player in Flames history.

The trade isn't finished yet these guys will play again next season.

Damn. Good job Panthers. I want to see a Panthers/Knights final. Solely because that means the Leafs and Oilers will both lose this round. But also I want to see Vegas, Florida, Dallas, and Carolina advance just to see all the people who think hockey shouldn't be in the southern states heads explode.

I wonder how much a lower bowl seat cost on the secondary market for this game

Me too. Cheering for the winner of this one to represent the East

It’s going to be a fun series to watch

I am sure it is a lot easier when you are a fan of the team whose general manager went in dry on Treliving.

I don’t want the Leafs or Oilers in the next round so this game represents 1 down and 7 to go.

Man oh man, how good is Matthew Tkachuk. Just completely transforms the Panthers from the soft regular season specialists they were last year into a team that was built for the playoffs.

I’m sure Chucky also doesn’t mind facing his old teammates from Calgary and London

TBH this annoys me the most.

He was never the guy he was this year for Florida with the Flames, it's my personal opinion and people won't agree with me but I don't think he ever truly gave 100% for the Flames. He always had one foot out the door and always planned to leave as soon as he could.

I’m just pissed off that he didn’t play like this for the Flames in the playoffs. This is night and day not even the same player. Can’t blame it on Sutter as he was pedestrian for three other Flames coaches in the playoffs.

He was a ghost in the playoffs every single time.

I said many times that Tkachuk would have a career after Gio left. and he did... just not in the playoffs.

But holy is he an effing unicorn this year.

Well part of that was he was creating the leverage he needed to get out on his terms...and it still wasn't the same as this year.

For large parts of last year he was the third most important piece on that line. His natural skill would shine through but he was the beneficiary of just how great that line was together.

This year he is the sole driver of offence and lots of time he is single handedly generating it. Also playing a more mature game and more substance with how he uses his agitation opposed to it being more for show in Calgary.

And it's a whole other level in the playoffs now.

Tkachuk is also just concentrating on the game and not as much on the ####-disturbing. Helps if you don't break your hand in the first period of the playoffs too.

I feel like a broken record but...

icetime

icetime

You give star players more icetime they will make more impact

You roll four lines the way Gulutzan, Peters, Ward, and Sutter did, then your stars will be more invisible. Heck, even the short shifts that get praised are not necessarily the best answer

Here are Tkachuk's top ten icetime playoff games:

Why are six of them from this year?
