[GT] Flyers @ Flames

[bubbsy]

it's been a fairly even game, the flames have done well to keep everything to the outside and not giving up any real chances.

they give up ONE chance and it goes in. to be fair, the flyers are probably saying the same thing from their perspective defensively.

both teams suck.

Flames are a much better team that is only playing as hard as they feel like. 5-6 guys work hard every shift and the other the other 12 are floating and playing meaningless hockey.
The 5-6 guys deserve a lead.

When your highest paid players have been this bad , this is what you get.

Are you ####ing kidding me?

[Aegypticus]

That .833 save percentage by Ramo when we're leading is terrifying. If you're losing to the Flames and put the puck on the net you have the same chance of scoring as you do rolling a 1 on a 6-sided die.

THE answer was not 42.

That crap is all on the players, and on that one, a lot on Ramo.

Something; he's the coach. It's his job to figure it out. Why does this continually happen that you can predict it occur? Once Flames are hemmed in their zone with seconds left, you know the puck is going in. That shouldn't be happening.

I wonder what Kipper Kid's up to these days.

Makarov?

Players to wear #42 for the Flames.

Makarov, Guy Larose, Ed Ward, Micki DuPont, Brett Sutter, Raitis Ivanans, Mark Cundari.

That is definitely NOT the answer.

[GranteedEV]

Would like to see in 3rd period:

Gaudreau-Bennett-Jooris
Frolik-Monahan-Hudler
Jones-Backlund-Grant
Bollig-Stajan-Colborne

Spoke too soon

[The Voice of Reason]

Turned on the game just in time to see the goal.

NHL goalies stop that shot.

Whoever has Karri Ramo on this team or on the ice isn't doing his job right. #letthehateflowthroughyou. Just had enough. I get it, doesn't matter if it's Hiller or Ortio either. I'm over Karri Ramo.

[bubbsy]

it's interesting how the flyers are the worst team in the league when it comes to shots against per game at a shade under 35/game.

they look just fine in that regard against the flames.

[flylock shox]

Still a bit too much deference in the forward ranks for Calgary but at least they're playing hockey games now rather than submitting to slaughter.

I'd love to see them come out with some 2014 mentality in the third and just bury these chumps.

[Cali Panthers Fan]

Can we give back Hunter Smith for Reto Berra?

[dammage79]

Also, at what point do you start looking at Jordan Sigalet as part of the problem too? The goalie coaches are supposed to help iron out these kinks.

[combustiblefuel]

I hav w no problem with the scoring at all. No bigger nets please.

[bubbsy]

sportsnet panels are so stupid. i have more intriguing hockey chats with my wife.
