I seldom make predictions but I have a feeling in my bones: 3-2 OT win.
I like it.
One of the best defenses on paper vs. the offensive juggernaut of the league.
You know the flames want this one. What better statement to make than to beat the lightning on home ice.
C'mon boys!

"I am actually more excited for the Oilers game tomorrow than the Flames game. I am praying for multiple jersey tosses. The Oilers are my new favourite team for all the wrong reasons. I hate them so much I love them."
I expect this to be a close game -- Flames tend to play to the level of their competition. That actually might explain why they always play like garbage against Edmonton, but that's for another thread...
Flames win 4-3 in OT, with Gaudreau scoring the winner; Monahan doesn't celebrate again.
I hope the Flames brass are holding serious discussions about this major problem. If it goes on, I simply don't see how Monahan can remain on this team.
I suppose I'd feel the same way if Johnny robbed me of a guaranteed GWG, but still.
No matter what personnel is on the team, who the coaching staff is, or how much time has passed, it is ALWAYS mandatory for the Flames to beat the ass of the stupid Lightning each and every time.
Hoping for a big win to keep the streak alive. Smith is going to have to be at his sharpest.

Some seriously good value to be had if you believe anyone other than TAmpa will win it all. Im going to Vegas in a couple months so i know i will be buying some tickets.
remember when they were almost a slam dunk to win it all?
Good times.
I remember when the criminally misled believed such obvious nonsense but I tend to prefer reality where the Oilers are among the worst sports teams that the world has ever known.
Thats real. Thats true. Thats comfortable.
