Good solid game by the Flames. These lines seemed to work well. Hopefully they have found something.
Good the powerplay got going. Also good to finally get Markstrom a win.
Hopefully big Z is okay. We’re getting pretty thin on the back end.

I'm glad they won tonight, but I never look at it this way. They still left too many points on the table lately in losses. Putting it in a nice package of "X points in the last X" doesn't change that.
I just hope they keep winning now against teams that they need to be beating, as we're expected to be a strong playoff team come April. People are beating the "strength of schedule" argument on CP, we're now at the weak part of the strength of schedule, so let's win the games, and more importantly show a line up that can beat any team in the league.
That's about as bad a team as you'll play in the NHL defensively. They're awful.

Nice to see them beat a team that they should be able to beat

From what I saw Andersson, Lucic both looked solid. Some nice passes from Huberdeau and goals from Lindholm. Good for Markstrom to get the W. Nice way to wake up this morning.

Maybe but the Sharks are a pretty bad hockey team. Has to be difficult for Sharks fans knowing that things aren't getting better for some time.

We are tempering our excitement because it is very possible the Flames lay an egg the next game..

The win is nice, obviously, but this team needs to string a bunch together.
I was dreading this game, and Tuesday's for that matter, as I couldn't help bit think of how this team played against a depleted Sharks team last season - notably at the Saddledome.
Last night though they took care of business. Gives me hope for the next few games, all of which are winnable and in division.

It will suck if Zadorov is out for an extended period. We’re getting pretty light on the back end.

This team’s problem is consistency though. Last night was good. But if they follow their pattern Tuesday will be a disaster.

California sports fans in general don't support losers unless maybe the Lakers or Dodgers.

Doesn't help either when they light up the empty seats and you see them all blinking lol

They beat a team they should and it was a late start on a Sunday.
Plus you don't want to say anything good or bad or you get followed around by certain posters who only like to comment about other posters and not the actual game.
Mackey got called out for a bad play after a two goal game. We insert a 7th dman to cut back his ice time.
Lucic scores but otherwise contributes nothing to the team and you are a hater.
It's a double standard on this team.

Not a hater ... just a broken record!
Even Scorp said Lucic had his best game in some time.
