Flames can and should beat Arizona. They had their number all year when games meant something and I don't buy Arizona views this as a spoiler game. They might dress some of their younger players to get them experience which we know can lead to upsets due to the youthful enthusiasm.

I still worry a head to head versus a kings team that is deep in experience and significantly bigger than the flames will be extremely difficult. We have seen how bigger teams like the blues can manhandle the flames and the kings did just that last matchup. I do like the flames will get last change. All in all, I'll worry about that game when the time comes. Time to beat an Arizona team like you beat the oil.

Yes. Except for the first period in that one.
A 3 goal first period lead will be better for my nerves.

If I had a gun with two bullets and was in a room with the Maurice, Sutter, and Nelson. I'd shoot Nelson twice.

Help alter my decision today Oilers.

Interestingly, San Jose fans started a "Fire Wilson" chant during last night's game.

Given his exquisite public demotivational tossing of Jumbo Joe under the bus earlier in the season, I'd say that was justified.

are the Flames still screwed in terms of making the playoffs? I could barely sleep on Monday night given the dire straits the team was in. Hopefully there is still a chance to make it. Was April 6th truly the day that the Flames playoff chances were doused?

@DarrenWHaynes: April 6 was the day Calgary's playoff hopes were extinguished in 2010 and 2011. Doused chances in 2015 too, it seems. http://t.co/DY3PMgaLYs
