Sportsnet wouldn't even show a decent replay. Says all you need to know about the call on Hamonic.

There is no Edmonton bias. They have the best player in the world and league leader in points. He is gonna get talked about. This narrative is so ridiculous always.

Well then he must’ve somehow played for 30 other teams at one point or another.

What would a game thread be without ####ting on Bennett. That was his 7th good period in a row which has to be close to the longest active streak of good periods on the Flames right now.

God I hope that’s sarcasm.

If you don't think there is a clear bias toward the Oilers you are out to lunch.

This is the Oilers PBP crew. All they talk about are the Oilers, non stop.

I don't think I would want to see that in any game, no matter how crazy.

Flames were actually pretty good for 18 minutes. Hanifin needs to wake the F up and they just need to keep plugging away.

Nope, he was very good over the past two games and may have been the best forward for the Flames that period.

First half of the intermission. All Oilers. Flames only mentioned because they are the Oilers opposition. We need a bigger barf emoji. I wonder if Randorf brought a couple clothing changes.

No they weren't. They were good for maybe 4 or 5 minutes.

Very disappointed in Lucic. Make a ####in big hit or something! Like a big ####in pussycat out there

Disagree, better team for the entire 18 minutes post disaster start.

Yeah, I'm sick of it, but at the same time, it's not like they can talk about how great Gaudreau is playing, so there it is..

[1_Flames_Fan]

Also Flames not being ready to play falls squarely on Ward. That is the head coach's job.
