[GT] Flames @ Montreal

[Yamer]

Apart from the fluke goal Rittich has looked solid. Really good on the second effort, though he shouldn't be giving them out as often as he has.

7 minutes without a whistle, 7 minutes without a post in the gamethread, lol.

[Aeneas]

Hope it's a good game.
Somehow Telus has decided that channel 911 will not work.

How is this possible to have every channel but this one ?

You gotta call 911

So missing a TV timeout ( or two), as the one whistle there was, was an icing and they can’t do a TV timeout on that, when do the sponsors get those commericals that they paid for, shown?

[zamler]

Habs slowly took over that period. Sure would be nice to see Johnny get a couple of points.

[bubbsy]

decent period.

No defensive brainfarts = Good

[Phil Russell]

Solid first period. Montreal gets a luck one.

[timbit]

Well played fast paced period.

[The Big Chill]

Rittich looked good. Tough luck on the goal, but fairly solid other than that.

[Jeff Lebowski]

Team needs to pick it up a bit. MTL had more zone time. Transition faster and gain the zone. Play in their end, get chances, draw penalties. Rittich pretty good but I think he needs to fight to see puck a little more. Learn from that goal and should be good.

The Flames need a couple of points. They had a very good first period.

Wow...I can hardly listen to the second TSN commentator hahaha. I'm not too sure who it is since I don't know many of the commentators around the league.

[direwolf]

Just got home. How are we looking so far?

pretty even so far. Defense looks similar to yesterday in that they aren't making dumb giveaways (knock on wood).

Rittich let in a behind the goaline goal off the back of his mask which was a bit unlucky.

and it was Sigalets fault.

[Jeff Lebowski]

CGY is not good in their end to start.

[direwolf]

Yikes, ugly shift there.

[GioforPM]

I like Rittich, but that goal was neither a fluke, nor unlucky. rittich just didn't follow the puck, got over way too late, and it was a pretty smart play to shoot it backhand so quickly.
