Backlund gassed after his rush, thought he’d take a risk on change. It was a bad decision.

Flames are incapable of stringing together wins, man. It's just frustrating.

A point on a back to back in Vegas is not too bad, but that should've been a win. Terrible penalty call on Duehr with Vegas scoring on that powerplay and then a bit of a weak goal against on Vladar... Just frustrating.

Hahaha what a horrible season.

Can't wait to see what desperation the "wizard" does at the deadline. This team is ####ed.

We're not a playoff team. Every time they win a game I think there's maybe a bit of hope, and then they turn around the very next night and stink it up as usual.

I'm done with this team. Wake me up next season.

Not going to get too upset with this one. Tough fought game against a good team in Vegas.

Also when Vegas tied it fatty Kessel was sitting on Vladar. You have to challenge that. Even if you lose that challenge the momentum is swinging wildly the other way anyhow.

I changed the thread title, pretty silly.

The Flames played great for most of the game, were clearly tired and a bad line change for yet another OT loss.

Tough loss.

I hate this team so much. Sell sell sell. Brutal mental mistakes time and time again. Nobody beats the Flames like themselves. Oh and their goaltending sucks.

Sucks that we wasted such a good game with about 7 minutes of just baffling decisions and flubbed pucks in the 3rd, and topped it off with a brain-dead change in OT.
I don't understand what Backlund was thinking there.
Like, I can't think of a worse time to change.

No idea what Hanifin was doing on the game tying goal...looked like Bambi on ice.

The Backlund change...complete brain fair.

Absolutely cannot blow a 3-1 lead in the third period.

Knew we were doomed when I saw backlund-dube-tanev for OT

That does not seem like a game clinching trio whatsoever, even though I love those three guys

Sutter has poor OT/SO instincts

It's a race to score, not defend
