Again, I don’t post often but Ward has got to call a time out at tie game. He’s an ok coach but but ok coaches don’t win cups. Anyways, started off horribly and we have to stop giving leads like this.

Gotta move on and look forward.
Threw him to the wolves? Lol. He was bad.

CF: 33-68 (33.33%)
FF: 24-43 (35.82%)
SF: 20-30 (40%)
SCF: 19-35 (35.19%)
HDCF: 7-11 (38.89%)
xGF: 1.34-2.59 (34.04%)

The Flames were utterly dominated and should've thanked the heavens had they squeezed out a point.

Vegas will stomp us if we play them in the Playoffs playing like that

Columbus bearing Vancouver tonight would really ease the sting of not getting this one to OT.

Man, that’s a sucky time for that fluke 4-3 goal.

Not the best game, but the Flames worked hard against tight defence to tie the game, than Vegas gets its Vegas luck.

I liked the broadcast. Leah took a bit to settle in but was really good the second half. Would totally be down for her getting more games

Sucks to lose one on such a fluke goal, still 6-3-1 in their last 10 and they have generally looked a lot better lately. We weren’t going 12-0 to close out the season. Still have some areas to clean up but this one doesn’t upset me too much.

What an absolute f’ing joke. Takes them half the game to tie it up and they give it right back a minute later. Come on.

She was way worse than Ball, she can practice at a lower level

The key thing is out first line did not perform. Period.

Didn't see the first two periods, but I assume they came out flat again since Vegas went up 2-0 early? This team has a real problem with their mental preparation to start games, especially on home ice. Keep that up and these guys are gonna get smoked in the 1st round no matter who they face...provided they actually make it in.

Monahan could be the worst player on the team. His only strength is getting goals from the slot. If that doesnt happen, he's basically invisible offensively and noticeable defensively, and not in a good way.

Call a time out after they tied it? No. Maybe after 4-3. But even there he probably was hoping for extended time in the offensive zone and if there was a whistle then he’d have called one. But the Flames never got it deep.

Well, aside from this one that was very nearly OT, they've caught us in some of our coldest stretches of the season.

Brutal ending.

Reminded me of the first ever game at home vs Vegas where Frolik gifted them a goal late.

What did this winner hit? Wonder if Talbot wins that game had he started.

Hate the decision to start Rittich so much. An NHL goalie should not get beat on that fourth goal from that angle (deflection or not).

Run with the hot hand, Talbot should have started.

Im actually curious about this. Has Ward ever called a timeout as head coach?

I can’t recall one.

Her call on the game winning goal was “is it in? Is it in? It looked in” and it was awkward.

Imagine Randorf did that. He would be getting shredded.
