Can’t be understated how important it is. If we win this we officially top the division regardless of remaining games in hand on any other team. Calgary is currently the only team that could hypothetically go on a win streak and come out above us at 48 GP
Quote:
For sure, a lot of people aren't tracking that. It's basically the game to determine the true 1st place team
Quote:
Metaphorically moves us up 4 huge pts if we win in regulation
Quote:
glhf flame boys, we dont have our stone boy tonight :sob:
Quote:
Calgary is going to be a problem in the plsyoffs. They can play a heavy game and box out skill players, cutting off their space. They have their own elite talent top lines and have stud goaltending.
Quote:
Calgary is going to be hard in the playoffs. They got everything they need to make a run. Good coach. Good d. Good goalie. Good group of forwards. Maybe they could use more depth. That might be their biggest weakness

Darn.

Another odd man rush. Poor Lehner. #### this effort by the team.

Great time to turn the game on :/
I wish I was drunk again already
Backs with a Schnipe
Quote:
Okay we can wake up now
Quote:
i go away to cook and this happens?!
Quote:
Well, the first team to score in literally match up between our teams has won all time, so GG, see you guys in a week.
Quote:
Flames are just way more coordinated and better in general than the Oilers, I’m confident we’ll sneak a win here but definitely don’t expect a blowout.
Quote:
We are 2 goals down in the 1st, right where we want to be?
Quote:
Got them right where we want them! Now lets put these fookin Flames out
Getting Darryl’d
Quote:
Offense, where the absolute #### art thou?!!!!
Quote:
Did they get stranded in Edmonton?!
Quote:
Damn the flames are good at not giving up shots. Pretty solid strategy
Quote:
Flames absolutely buzzing, skating circles around our guys. It's like the Flames had a week off and we played a hard game last night or something. Ugh.
When the Flames get going early they usually win. Gonna need some VGK magic tonight
Quote:
Just a bunch of pylons watching the game
Quote:
Lol we're sucking so bad our commentators wanna talk about the Superbowl.
Quote:
Lol we look like a team that played last night
Quote:
These back to backs are almost worthless to watch honestly. It’s a completely different team the next day and just way more frustrating to watch
Quote:
Spending the entire period in the D zone usually results in #### like this
Quote:
Flames are the better team by a million so far this game.
Quote:
Have the refs called "too many men" on the flames yet? Seems they've been playing with 7 players on the ice all game... wtf!
Shoooooooooooooot!! The puck!!!
Quote:
First shot 7 minutes in.. yikes
Quote:
Damn do we even have a shot on goal
Quote:
Our shot volume is pretty bad tonight.
Quote:
4 shots on goal… wtf
Quote:
Uhh.. can I get uhhh.. 4 VGK goals.. hold any goals against.. and uh... small fries?
Quote:
Oof markstrom. I forgot about this guy.
Whole Lotta Goalie
Quote:
Patrick just got flat out robbed
Quote:
Bruh Markstrom chill
Quote:
Don’t know how I’m supposed to feel with the constant close ups of Markstrom laughing and smiling at our feelble attempts to score.
Quote:
####ing markstrom. How did vancouver give him away? What is wrong with vancouver? Imagine having demko and markstrom.
Quote:
Anyone else feel like we are getting shut out?

Who invited that stupid ass lightning fan

Team took the night off, ####in hell
Quote:
Vegas getting worked
Quote:
teams straight up clown shoes tonight
Quote:
Another night of elite goaltending
Quote:
Thats game. Team didn't show up....
See y'all at next one.
Quote:
Let's not blow out a team and then get blown out the very next day, ok?
Quote:
Lol second night of a back to back without Mark Stone will do that I guess. I expected to lose but not like this.
Misplaced Patriotism

BEAT CANADA
Quote:
Is... is Calgary not in Alberta, CANADA??
Quote:
is this payback from last night? do you not #### with alberta?
Quote:
Okay so I'm sorry about saying Calgary was in Canada; can we reverse this juju?
Quote:
Oilers are getting smoked again and Fleury is doing his best to ensure whatever amazing chances they do get aren’t going anywhere
Quote:
Clearly there's one superior Alberta team
Home-Baked Bread
Quote:
We're looking pretty, how do you say it, not good right now
Quote:
Well of course VGK is starting to get going a bit and now the Flames score. Just one of those nights.
Quote:
Well ####
Quote:
Yeah this is like last night’s game except we’re Edmonton.
Quote:
Notice how this always seems to happen whenever Stone goes down....
Think it's time for a fiery "sack the #### up, screw it on straight, and get over it" fury rant by Pete. Team needs to learn how to play w/o Stone at times.
I've seen varsity players with more heart than us tonight
Quote:
Still don’t get why we get to suffer a B2B followed by a week off but let’s get this bread
Quote:
Just gonna be one of those games I guess
Quote:
Well that's it for me.
Quote:
We’re a final five minutes of the third period kind of team.
Quote:
Got 2 periods to figure it out but I’d rather them not wait til the final 5 of the 3rd today
Quote:
Gonna be that kind of night. Didn't even try to stop the man
Quote:
We're down 4-0... so lets just pretend this never happened.... agreed?
Quote:
So we just need.... ....5 goals in the 3rd.
....

One of the best defensive efforts to the worst. Kinda impressive.

Can we please skip to next week already

Remember last night? How happy you were? I remember.

Pepperidge farms remembers.
Eat some MORE Bread!
Quote:
Whatever. About time the team gets spanked for ####ty effort and goalie isn’t bailing them out.
Please hang 7 on the team so they can think about it for a week.
Quote:
We look like ####ing amateurs
Quote:
If anyone needs me I'll be bathing with my toaster
Quote:
Didn’t know there was a game tonight!
ETA JESUS we’re being slaughtered
Quote:
Don't worry the team didn't know there was a game either
Quote:
That sequence sums up the effort from the boys. No heart.
Panda out there by himself.
Quote:
Just....lol
Quote:
This game is so bad.

Everything changed when the fire nation attacked
Quote:
I'm at my casino bowling league tonight and they have the game on but not paying 100% attention. However when I look up and see the score it makes me glad bowling was tonight
Coach Nopes it Outta There

Tippett just ran down the tunnel
Quote:
into the sunset, never to be seen again
Quote:
Lol @ Tippett storming off the bench at the end of the game.
Quote:
Lol Tippett just ####in booked it
Quote:
There goes tipp Running away
Quote:
Nothing you can do but laugh. This team is a joke.
Quote:
Let’s! Get! Ready! To! BLENDERRRRRRR!
Quote:
This Oilers season is like Game of Thrones. Started off absolutely incredible and then just ends in pure disappointment and anger, making you wonder wtf just happened
Quote:
I wish somebody would just give this team the Ned Stark special at this point and end it all.
Quote:
This team is a ****ing joke.
Quote:
Firing Tippett is harder than quitting smoking apparently.
Quote:
Calgary went through their growing pains last year, they shored up the goaltending and put the right person behind the bench.
Oilers have been displaying their weakness for everybody to see last 2 years and nothing has been done about it.
Get rid of the f***ing coach Ken...you need a f***ing pamphlet or a pop-up book? you dumb individual.
Quote:
Dave Tippett is the Thanos of Optimism.
Any that exists is almost instantaneously gone, reduced to atoms.
Quote:
1260 says if you're angry with Tippett don't hear his post game presser. f*** man I'm going to be more angry when I hear this.
Quote:
Did Tippett just call out his own ####ty system????
Quote:
Oilers hiring criteria - Useless
Hired!
Keeping up with the Joneses
Quote:
Vegas got waxed by the Flames. Another shutout for Markstrom.
These should be the top two in the Pacific, and everyone else is playing for 3rd and the 2nd Wild Card.
Tippett vs DeBoer, Sutter, or Bednar in the first round. lol
Quote:
Is there another Sutter available?
Quote:
And Calgary is dummying the Knights.
Quote:
Meanwhile Calgary uo 3-0 on Vegas
Quote:
The best team in the history of pro sports is up 4-0 again. Against a Vegas club that mustered 4 shots in 27 minutes and one was a dump in. I mean yet another night where a club is absolutely mailing it in against the Flames. Why? I was watching the game. you can't tell me this was anything in particular the Flames were doing. Vegas hasn't even shown up in this game. Of course.
Mangypane now has more goals than Connor Mcdavid in weird universe. If this happened on your NHL22 game you'd ask for a refund, theres somethign wrong with it..
I'm owning the out of town likes..

Flames coming in cold, Knights have their legs from playing the night before. Pffftttt. Flames were eager to play and skated them right out of the rink in the first.
Beautiful.
The Following User Says Thank You to Strange Brew For This Useful Post:
Another big win for the Flames, proving that they are a force to be reckoned with come playoff time. I see no issue with this team being able to win 4 out of 4/5/6/7 games against any western opponent.
#### yeah. Got to love this team and their effort.
Markstrom with another shutout. Backlund with a huuuuuuuuge night. Mangiapane showing that he can actually score at the dome. Tkachuk with his patented between the legs goal.
Dominated in the score, dominated on the dot, dominated for 60 minutes.
