Pretty awful positioning by Marky.

The team definitely needs to find it's mojo.

Not even close to playing their best. Very reactionary.

Yeah.


I'm still not worried. Flames haven't even flexed their muscles yet in this one.

No, Markstrom is not taking the blame for that one. He is the only reason this isn’t 4-0 Oilers already.

If Oil takes this series because of their superior PP, so be it. It is part of the game. But they are also winning with Smith. And out 5 v 5 tonight is weak sauce

No they aren't. The Flames performed poorly against a "weaker" opponent in round 1. They are now performing poorly against another "weaker" opponent.

Maybe they just aren't as good as everyone here thought.

Flames are trying to play run-a-gun game with the Oilers. They’re gonna lose doing it. No hitting in their own zone and letting the Oilers run around at will.

I love how Caveman was chirping Stone and Stone was just smiling and nodding. Then as Kassian walks away Stone rolls his eyes.

Missed the first period since the in-laws showed up randomly for dinner.

It is what it is. Yeah he's made some saves. He overplayed that badly.

I actually don't mind how flames are playing outside of transitions on turnovers. I'd like to see flames defense and high forward playing a bit more conservative.

But otherwise, the flames are playing well enough given context

They're clearly not playing well. If they were playing their best and losing you might have a point. They are good. They're not playing good. There is a difference.
