[GDT] Toronto Maple Leafs @ Calgary Flames 7p.m (MDT) SNW

[Burning Beard]

This fanbase is softer than the core of the team. Hahaha. Go Flames!

[Moneyhands23]

Hoping we lose 6-5. Really worried to get points and have BT add at the deadline.

[FanIn80]

Going on a big run and either finishing just outside the playoffs or squeaking in and getting swept is probably the most Calgary Flames thing there is.

We all know it's going to happen, might as well start tonight.

[FanIn80]

Also, I've decided that I'm only going to care as much about them winning as they do... which means I could completely forget they even exist and I'd still come out on top.

We’ll look back on tonight as the night that our draft position start dropping from 7th to 15th.

The outcome is simple. If the leafs’ best players out play ours, it’s a loss for the flames. Lather, rinse, repeat.

[CroFlames]

I’m drunk and mad that I don’t care about hockey puck. Stupid flames.

[zamler]

I'm trying to think of a reason to watch this game.

[Heavy Jack]

I wish it was

Gaudreau - Lindholm - Tkachuk
Mangiapane - Monahan - Dube
Lucic - Backlund - Bennett
Nordstrom - Ryan - Ritchie

[Strange Brew]

Nesterov and Stone playing.

Valimaki and Kylington watching.

I have mixed emotions about that, but it’s not like the young players have shown they deserve it more.

[zamler]

What's the plan, go on a miracle run or tank? Being in the middle does no good.

[Heavy Jack]

Miracle run is definitely more desirable but not nearly as realistic lol

I’m hoping for miracle run. Granted I wouldn’t put any money on that bet.

DS is a smart guy, he probably had a good idea who he wanted and who was out or on the bubble the day he said yes.

Miracle run and then tank in the playoffs.

I don't believe there is ever a plan to tank. At least, that is never the coach's, nor the players's plan.
