Best win of the season. Flames looked like a contender tonight - making great plays left and right, and playing like a real team out there. It wasn't like the Wild were not trying. Flames looked like a team that simply out-played them.


Great to see Huberdeau score. He was overdue. Andersson had a monster game. Coleman was fantastic. Fun game to watch!

That was an entertaining game. Good to see Zary and Coronato score. Can't forget Huberdeau too. Been a while for him. The rest did Wolf good. He played great.

Andersson setting himself up for a huge payday.

Flames are a much better team than they showed earlier this season. The team of the last 15 games is very maintainable IMO.

Replacing Hughes immediately with Verhoeff/Mckenna/Stenberg would suck as their rival.

First game that I’ve seen in person in a long time and it was a good one. Even if I lean towards team tank, it never hurts to see a convincing win from time to time.

I was honestly impressed by their system in the offensive zone - they play way more east-west than I expected to see, with tons of cross ice passes and passes into the slot. Even though the lack the high end skill to execute most of the time, I like watching it a lot more than just bumping it back for a point shot like it seemed like was the norm for so many Flames systems of the past.

Zary has looked much better later - looks like he is playing with more confidence. That was a nice goal by him.

Maybe Zary's best game of the year.

Remember when Andersson wasn't worth a 2nd round pick because he was -38? Yeah, neither does Andersson

Honestly the west looks pretty bad outside of the top Central teams.

Kraken are not it. Neither are the Mammoth.

Still a question if the young up and coming teams have actually become playoff caliber. Sharks, Hawks and Ducks.

No one from the Pacific looks great.

If they play like this the entire home stand they’ll be knocking on a wildcard spot by end of the month.

Wow wasn’t expecting to end the Wild’s 12 game no regulation loss streak. 2 of the most gorgeous goals all year within 3 minutes too.

The Flames goaltending is too good with too many players who care to tank.

Not at all what I expected from a game against Minnesota.
I would not have bet on Calgary scoring 4 goals on them even though one was an EN.
My best guess is that the tired Flames team that got their butts handed to them by Nashville somehow put up an energetic revenge game against a historically stingy Wild team.

Rasmus Andersson is going to bring back a decent haul for the Flames at the TDL.
Many of the teams that look likely to make the play-offs can certainly use a minute munching veteran RD that can play on one of their Top 2 pairings.
Blake Coleman is the type of third line stud winger that every play-off bound team will covet.
Both can potentially bring back first and/or second round draft picks and/or A prospects.

Come on Craig, make it happen.

Two goal scorers and it will be a completely different team.
