From the vantage point I have at the game, it looked like a lot of traffic and perfectly placed shot.

second goal only happened because he made himself small in the net

the third goal, he should have, but didn't, challenge the shooter. He played it timidly and left too much net open

Yeah, Stone was really responsible for his stick.

Get ####ed ref.

Yeah, i don't understand that. Hoglander's action happened first forcing Stone's action. How can it be two penalties? It's like how you don't get penalized after an offside.

At the end of the day it’s the goalies job to make good saves. It’s just simple math really on what’s an acceptable level of goalie’ing and Jacob ain’t hitting it.

The Flames are, and have been, the better team and should be able to find a way to get 2 points tonight.

Too many games so far where they played well enough to win but didn't - time to start closing the deal more often

Struggling against a bottom feeder who will probably over take us if our coach can't get it together.

Lewis swapped for Toffoli yup that's what we need.

I'd hate to be wrong and will gladly eat crow. But, calling any team the Flames play a bottom feeder or a lower quality opponent and therefore should win, is little misleading. As the Flames are closer to the mediocre, at best, bubble team type of opponent than a legit contender.

If McDavid scored that goal that Lewis scored we'd be seeing it non stop for the next couple days.

If Huberdeau cannot stand out against a defensively suspect team like the Canucks i am not sure what the upside will be. We are over 1/3 of the way through the season and I am pretty underwhelmed.

First comment here boys! Glad to be here amongst some solid Flames fans

Thoughts in this.

I’ve been doing my best to defend Marky, while tough, being a goalie at definitely not NHL calibre, I can understand some of the plights of bad goals, taking the blame and what not.

Now thoughts: how much do you guys think a lot of Marky’s struggles this year fall on LaBarbera? I only say this cause the things that people are saying about Marky not playing big enough, he keeps playing too low etc, I’ll be honest I do see a bit from Vladar as well. We’re all smart enough here to know that talent doesn’t go away, and Marky is talented. Could goaltending philosophy be the plight of his struggles? Not sure if it’s been explored yet

I agree. Pretty easy to imagine 13 and 19 would have had multiple points tonight.

Not a word. Confirmed by the scholarly group Sloan.
