I agree, but he is going down a little to easily for my liking. If he was a flame I would be embarrassed as a fan or teammate.

He did this when he was with the Victoria Grizziles too.

Yeah, but sometimes it's a dive. The key is to be objective enough that you can recognize the difference and not use it as a go-to complaint on every call.

Jamie Benn seems to be falling a lot more than others tonight. I think the Diaz penalty was a legit trip but when he follows it up with some clear dives I have to wonder...

And now Spezza tries the belly flop, but no call. Should be embarrassed, these Stars. Come on Flames, be better than this and beat these Stars.

Calgary's defense is starting to show signs of fatigue with the added minutes since Gio's injury leading to mistakes

Backlund got out of position but Benn going down because of that is seriously a joke. Guy is like 220 and backlund was facing away from him skating in the same direction.

####ing reffing lately... Gaudreau gets called for a dive for less than that.

Ever since the colorado fake two many men penalty that cost the flames 2 points it's been all downhill.

Granlund has been terrible thus far, we need to shorten the bench.
