No biggie, we need both goalies playing well moving forward.
Impossible to say. Maybe Johnson has had some really good practices and Gulutzan is going off the same formula that resulted in a blowout win against the Ducks earlier in the month. Like I said I find it curious but nothing to get overly excited about.

Peter Loubardias just mentioned on the fan that the flu may be a bit of an issue in the locker room.

If he didn't play last week I would get it but even with the break I think it's a little premature to want to go back to Johnson to keep him warm.

I usually do two at the casino beforehand, then 2 dome beers per period. Depending on outcome of game, more beer at the casino again.

I was hoping to go to this game but the flu has taken the steam out of my family, don't think the wife would appreciate me leaving her alone with sick kids and grandparents.

Hopefully the flu isn't too bad for the Flames.

Flames win 5-1 and Monahan has all five. Some lucky fan will win a million dollars! What a time to be alive.

The single goal against will be an own goal by Monahan as well when he inexplicably fires the puck into his own net in the final minute of the third period. This will correspond directly to someone using the word shutout in a post. Still a good game to watch.

My only wish last night was the Nucks to beat the Kings. Let's take advantage of that. Ducks will be all ready and the first 10 minutes is crucial for the Flames.

They are starting Johnson because he needs a start and beat the Ducks. That's my guess. If they wanted to take Elliott out after a win because of "bad" goals, they would have done it the game before.

Hope you are taking the train or taxi home, or a designated driver will drive you home

I weigh 230 lbs and I am 6'4 so I'm just the right amount of buzzed.

But of course I never drive if I drink. In fact the odd time I do drive, then I just OD on sodium with peanuts.
