With a worse performance from Wolf and not so many called back goals, the Flames arev likely a bottom team. I do think the flames are doing a great job of not collapsing when down by goals. Better than the vast majority of bottom feeding teams would.
lol what? the goals are illegal...they shouldn't have happened

especially the offside ones that should have been blown down on the fly...people twisting themselves in circles to explain the Flames decent record. Some people have short memories, they are legitimately playing better than the first 15 games last year...far better.

Almost made the miraculous save in OT
He either looks like an average nhler when he gets a little over zealous in the crease or like a carbon copy of Kipper with ice in his veins.

Pretty ####ing good range for a rookie goalie.

I am not comparing them to the top teams, but to the bottom teams.

Are they a good team? No. Are they as bad as the worse teams? Again no.
