I don't think the Jets are in this game really. The best Flames players showed up and are taking advantage of a weaker team, as they should be. Can't see the Flames having too many problems seeing the game through now.

Decent first, and a really good second. Let’s go and have ourselves an excellent third.

They got away with putting the on net after getting the 2 goal cushion. Need to get back to that in the third.

I'm glad I'm not the only one feel that way.

I dunno.....I’ve been watching this team since they arrived in Calgary. Never underestimate their ability to make things difficult on themselves. Its not over till the final buzzer.

I like Anthony Stewart on the panel. Calls it the way he sees it and delivers a simple description of the play.

Looking good so far. Why couldn’t they play like this yesterday? So annoying.

Does Bieksa have dirty pictures of someone high up? Not sure how that arrogant SOB has a job in broadcasting.

I can't stand Bieksa, but his broadcast talent actually isn't that bad. That makes me angry.

Geeze I wonder if Ron Maclean is going to heap praise on the Backlund goal the way he has been heaping praise on Neals goal from last night. The dynamics on both goals were similar. But we all know that Ron only waves the Pom Poms for his beloved Oilers.

Flames vs Jets. Let’s circle jerk McDavid in the intermission!

Classic Sportsnet.

Great period.

Calgary's best players all contributing with Lindholm, Backlund, Monahan and Tkachuk.

Calgary doesn't have a game breaker; its gotta be everyone contributing. Happy to see it...gotta keep it going in the third.

Agreeing with Bieksa feels...weird.

Burke's take is confusing to me. That's on Perreault.

The Flames haven’t scored more than 4 goals in a playoff game since the 7-4 win vs Vancouver in 2015. Is today the day they get 5?

I couldn't stand him as a player, but he's a decent panalyst. Sometimes it's good when the "bad guy" gets that kind of job.

brian burke thinks the league might suspend sam bennett for his hit on perreault

I assume that was a directive from Sportsnet to keep the Oilers cheerleading going.

Good second period. Feel bad for Looch. He will get one though.
