Yep. Sportsnet showed a replay that clearly showed Kesler never touched it though so it didn't matter.

Maybe, but he was wrong. The SN panel broke it down from another angle and Kesler didn't play the puck -- Gaudreau got his stick between Kesler's and the puck so in effect Kesler pushed Gaudreau's stick, which pushed the puck. He didn't touch it -- hence no whistle. You can see it was indisputably the right call.

No. Kesler was upset about a missed call earlier, then they called the infraction on stoner pushing Hudler to the ground by his face. He was arguing that the penalty call against them was unfair if they weren't calling the other one.


If you can read lips, here's a still photo of Getzlaf talking to the refs. It looks remarkably similar to Boudreau calling the league about Wolf's love tap on Perry's leg

Andersen can be beaten.

We all believed he was vulnerable, but the Flames weren't testing him.

We talked about it a lot at the game, he looked very unimpressive, not only on the goals, but throughout the game, with positioning, rebounds, everything.

If the Flames can get it going and start generating some offense, there is a very god chance we win the goaltending battle.

Frankly, I was shocked that there was never an Anderson chant going.

I would imagine there will be on Friday.

There was a poor attempt of a "Freddddddd-ieeeeee" chant going, not sure if people are unaware of his first name or if the fans just weren't feeling it.

I keep hearing Andersen let in 4 goals on 21 shots. He knows and we know he let in 5 on 21. That's even worse

Put down the clipboard Jonas! There are no more shots to keep track of!

It's because it was completely uncoordinated. Some people went the "Freddie" route, and there were a couple sections going "Annn-derrr-sooonn"

Sometimes the jumbotron needs to direct the fans with chants like that so we can all get on the same page. Both sound good, both have the same effect.

Pom Poms are for high school or bicycle handlebars. Never again.

I love looking for little details in these videos. Like Sam having issues getting off the bench for the celebration.

I was so disappointed when I walked in and saw them. People weren't really using them though thank god.

Chalms and I made skirts out of them, almost scorch like.

[polak]

Yeah all the chants seemed a little off and out of sync.

But I was also in PL so it's hard to tell.

It didn't help that the muted red and yellow looked like orange from a distance. Anaheim's colours

[Tyler]

Between the Home Depot orange towels, stupid thundersticks and now this, I think the Flames swag guy should be fired

Anaheim protects their goalies so well. It's why they are so frustrating to play against.

Anyone else notice how effective Hudler is when he sets up as a screen ?
Manly work in front of the net ,takes a ton of abuse but stays there , we need more of that from other players !
