Even though we owned the Leafs tonight I'd still give them a minus for their lack of finish around the Leafs net. Frustrating game to watch.

I didn't see it, but even if it was a brutal giveaway i have never seen a NHL dmen try to stop a 2 on1 that way.

Flames really miss Gio on the back end. Has to suck when you're injured and can't play.

you should try watching the game - it was the same play

[BruceCody]

Lose for Sam Reinhart. Just planned

[flameester]

Brodie was the best Flame on the ice up until he made one bad decision and it ended up in our net. He joined the rush and had numerous scoring chances. He made a mistake. He is young and learning.

Play Colborne a lot - have him score against former team and former team of Burke,

That'll showem'

An infuriating game for the Flames. It makes you want to sing along with the late Lou Reed:

"Don't you know you wanna, kill your sons."

On the other hand the result is typical of most Leafs games this season. They get outplayed . . . and win.

Then you really have no idea what you're talking about...

Butler's sprawl was basically a result of trying to scramble back after a horrid play

Good thing all those players we picked up on compliance buyouts in the summer from teams in cap hell are helping us.

Can't. I didn't PVR it. But there is no way i was going to continue watching after that spectacle.

I don't feel too bad for this loss. Playing the highest ranking team in the East without Gio and we managed to double their shots

[Hemi-Cuda]

Ramo has the worst rebound control in the league, it's like his pads are made out of bouncy balls. All 3 goals are squarely his fault. The Leafs didn't even have to work hard for the win, they just relied on goaltending on both sides of the ice and coasted to a victory. Very frustrating to watch a solid effort by the rest of the team get cancelled out by an ECHL quality goalie

After that performance I think we see JoeyMac back in on Friday for sure.

Except that makes no sense, as Brodie was already paired with Gio prior to the injury and got the same matchups that Gio was getting.

Okay okay okay.......

I guess no one really noticed Colborne making some nifty defensive plats or winning some key face offs. Lets not forget he is a rookie. You guys are really hard to please.
