This goes without saying as I am not saying anything ordinarily.. but I think the winner of this game takes the series.

Hopefully the Flames can pull out a win here.

I feel like the winner of this game is going to be one game closer to winning the series. Huge two points indeed.

That’s a great point Bonded. Putting pucks in the net and keeping pucks out of your own net, that’s what the game today is all about. Doesn’t matter what era you’re in, hockey is hockey.

Game 5 is of course so huge. The result is a tossup IMO but I'm very confident the Flames will come out playing well.

Yet another game I'm gonna have to miss. Not a fan of these stupid start times.

Sure feels like the winner today takes the series.

If there ever was a time for that first line to make difference... this would be it. Can't rely on shorties to keep you in it every game.

I feel like the team that wins two of the next three takes the series. Just a hunch.

I'm sure we'll find out today on the severity. There is a chance he plays if he's not experiencing any symptoms but if he doesn't then we don't really know how long.

Does not seem that smart to schedule Canadian teams in the afternoon. More eyeballs in the evening.

Every game so far the Flames all just float and let Dallas have it... its one of the most infuriating things to watch. That and backing in and letting Dallas take point shots on net all game long.

Just compete, just battle, just win.
This has been my biggest beef with the team throughout this series. I’ve spent a lot of time yelling at my tv for them to go get the damn puck. When the Flames are I’m their own end they stand around and collapse to the middle of the ice and let Dallas run around like they are on the PP. It’s like they are unable to leave that position to go after a loose puck along the boards. Countless times they have been closer to the puck but refuse to go after it and instead wait for a Dallas player to take it.

Is this a system they are being forced to play?? Laziness? Fear of screwing up? I don’t know what it is but if they continue doing it they won’t win this series. Get in their and battle!!
