I didn’t really notice it at the time but the Flames gave up after the first.

Pretty sad that they seem content with only being very good.

At least Gio got a point.

You think the Ducks will trade Andersen to us, their division rival?

That's the kind of game where we needed someone like Iggy to drop the gloves.

Also, this is the point in the season where Rittich really started to nosedive last year. Looks like he's right on cue.

Goaltending is going to be our Achilles Heel going into the playoffs. That, and Treliving should have picked up one more #### disturber at the deadline. We can't be pushed around in our own building like this, our track record has to be better.

Thanks for nothing flames. Nice we get to hear the toronto media go on and on about how great the leafs are.

I thought Rittich was crap, Brodie was garbage. Tkachuk was lousy. Kylington was bad. Frolik needs to chat with his agent.

I didn't the leafs played all that great, but clearly shows that goaltending is EVERYTHING in this league.

Call me pessimistic, but the flames haven't had a really strong game by the team in over a month, despite tge continued winning.

As the games get harder, our top line has dwindled and our goaltending lacking any mental fortitude.

Maybe it's time for Brodie to sit a few games. Andersson to the top pairing and bring back Valimaki.

Frustrating.

I can’t think of another game this season with the luck balance so far against us.

Two very gentle slashes called against us. Lots of worse things let go.

Lots of good chances of ours bounced over our sticks. They got a couple goals off favourable bounces.

The sky isn’t falling.

I'm glad we have a 1st round pick in the quiver to address the goaltending this summer.

But then the Flames should open up the market and allow season ticket holders to re-sell tickets without their artificial caps. Since that won’t happen, this is what will always happen as season ticket holders try to maximize value by selling the hottest game of the year.

Agree would of been nice to see a fight or at least some more physicality. In a game where nothing is going right for you with the bounces you have to do something to get that momentum back and it didn't seem like anyone wanted to step up. Hopefully much better effort in Vegas.

Also, it doesn't feel like that long ago we had one of the top 1st lines in the game, have barely noticed Monahan lately. Lindholm and Gaudreau also haven't been themselves.. gotta get this sorted out now as things are tightening up and teams are shutting them down. Playoffs is going to be even tighter checking

Not gonna analyze this game. Leafs rope a doped a team that wasn't executing defensively or offensively.

Who on the Leafs is gonna fight in a game they are up by four goals?

We beat the Islanders twice in like, 10 days. Isles embarrass the Leafs on JT-returns-home night. Leafs beat us at home tonight. Sometimes its the cyclical nature of this league. Didn't get the bounces tonight.


Everyone take the night off and relax. Bring on Vegas Wednesday.

Was at the game and can say that the flames didn’t ‘throw a stinker’. Sounds weird but I thought they actually were the better team. Just a tough night and Andersen played out of his mind.

Very worried about goaltending.

Not worried about the other things... yet.

Weird. I thought the Flames looked fantastic in the second period.

More embarrassed by the amount of rich Leaf loving baby boomers in the crowd.
