Full marks to the Flames for an excellent effort overall. Even Wideman skated well. Elliott was outstanding; those two huge saves in overtime...wow.

I really really hate to mention the officiating, but it was pretty brutal, especially in the third period. Many blatant holds and a clear interference play uncalled.

Not a bad game for the Flames on a back to back. Elliott played well, Johnny struggling a bit.

A point from this game is good. If the Flames had played with HALF that intensity last night, we'd've won 37-0...

Silver lining: with the loser point, LA can't catch us tonight. Other than that Oilers. Also, Brodie is a much better player on his backhand, it's like poetry. Not saying he needs to be reunited with Gio but he most definitely needs to be moved back to the right side.

The Flames deserved better. And once again the idiots in stripes decide to only watch one team. And shootouts need to go.

I just want to give kudos to Wideman again, the guy gets blasted so much on here so he deserves some recognition when it goes the other way.

Why does Gulutzan always open OT with 2F 1D?

Stop trying to re-invent the wheel we were the best 3-on-3 team on the planet a year ago opening with 2D 1F.

Is it weird I'm not mad? Elliott was the reason we even got a point to take it into OT and the shootout. That last save was insane and he was good all night. Hopefully this gets him his confidence back.

Sucks we're 4 points behind the Grease but still. I can't be too mad about that game. Johnny and Mony need to do way better in shootouts though.

Great game by Elliott.

Tough way to lose but a good game overall.

Outside of the shootout that was a very entertaining game. Great golatending on both sides and some big hits thrown. A real shame the Battle of Alberta is only 4 games in total. We need more of these divisional rivalry games.

Not even mad. Flames played a great game and Elliott was fantastic. Game really could have gone either way.

Great effort by the team on a back-to-back. Didn't notice most of the Oilers best players at all. Flames shut down McDavid for 60 minutes, then survived in OT.

If we play that exact game going forward we'll be fine.
