Personally, I love the Saddledome because I have so many great memories of it. I'll always recognize that it's outdated and, yes, old, but I feel that this just adds to the historical background and mystique of attending a game there. It's an amazing experience.

Ugly period by the Flames, with the exception of the Backlund line. Elliott is the only reason we're still leading. Dude is calm as a cucumber back there. Flames will need a much better effort in the 3rd if they want to close this out.

GG needs to light a bit of a fire under the boys for the 3rd - they stopped skating as hard in the 2nd!

Even tho chucky got laid out there I love his confidence right now to even try that move. Would've lost my #### if he buried that last chance, his patients is so impressive

I genuinely don't think the dome is in a state where it is yet worth blowing $800m on an upgrade.

That would have been awesome if we could have scored on that final rush late in the period. Down 13-2 in shots but up 1-0 in goals...

In 5 years, when realistically a new rink would probably be ready at this point, it will need to be.

That's ridiculous

Barclays Center
Joe Louis Arena
MSG (IMO)

Are three off the top of my head I can think of which are worse.

Yeh it's a whole 34 years old!! I'm surprised it hasn't crumbled to dust yet. Give me a break!! How long did they play in Maple Leaf Gardens and the Montreal Forum?? No one was calling them dumps. We have become so spoiled!!! If we aren't getting something brand new every 30 years we bitch!!
