Yeah I hope this is more or less a preview of the system Gulutzan is trying to implement (and not just a fluke good period). If so then I'm on board. It feels controlled, while also trying to capitalize on quick up ice transitional plays.

That was a great period of hockey, and also, Elliot's 1st scoreless period as a Flame!

So after a players only meeting, the team comes out flying. Anyone still questioning Gio's leadership?

If not for Crawford's heroics, we'd probably be up 2 or 3 goals by now.

Just turned on the game. Nice to see they finally got a PP goal. How is the team looking overall so far?

As much as we want this for a full 60 minutes, we know that won't happen.

I think he's been losing a bunch of hair too, I'll do a year-by-year comparison and post one later

I'm going to need more than one good/great period before I'm convinced they've turned the corner.

I'm hopeful though, they looked good against a good team.

Is it possible to go anywhere without hearing about baseball?
