First of all great road win. The Leafs didn't seem interested and the Flames just kept plugging away. However that is the most biased officiated game I have seen in years. It's not the volume of the calls but the quality of the calls on Neal and Giordano. Those plays are never called in any game ever and blowing the whistle well after the puck was off the net in Flames possession was also garbage. Just embarrassing for the league.

Smith has taken a lot of heat but he was big late so to me he deserves a star for that. Tkachuk needs a talking to by the coach as he needs to pick his moments to be a pest as that penalty changed the complexion of the game as the Leafs didn't have a shot on net well into the 3rd period before that penalty.

Excellent game, though did dodge a massive bullet with Valimaki-Hamonic giving up a breakaway where the guy flubbed the shot.

I thought our best players today were Brodie and Lindholm, by far. Oh and Gaudreau.

This game shows just how bad NHL officiating is. Just a lot of questionable calls.

Flames dominated most of the play, and got the win. Would've liked more goals to match the effort though.

How many times are we going to see that no-goal over the next day or so on Leafsnet?

The flames manage to fight through 2 phantom penalties and a blown down 4-1 with an empty net. Hopefully the team galvenizes around a clear win against the refs and goes on a run

Good game! But why do we play our worst defensive line with the open net boxplay? Oh and the refs sucked big time.

Much better defensively. They need to do that a lot more often. Great game by Smith.

Refs had a rough night. Some of the calls and non-calls were mind boggling.

The Flames won, and once again, all was right in the universe.

I dunno. I felt like the penalty calls on the leafs were pretty weak as well. I agree the leafs just seemed disinterested. I’m so happy we were able to keep a team to one goal and one sort of goal that hit the side of the net
