This team is nuts.
Costco signature move looks unstoppable and Ras shooting from that far out? The goalie reads it or you miss and you look like a moron. Big brass ones.
I will say, watching this one in person that Matthew Boldy is extremely good.
Not sure he gets the recognition that most stars get but wow does he ever carry that team.

He is a huge reason why Kaprizov is leading the league in points

Do we ever win matinee games??? It seems like a once in a blue moon occurrence

Sure glad my edible is kicking in now.
Quote:
Say no to Saturday matinee games.
Quote:
Yeaaa, love afternoon games. Though I also kinda like those west coast starts because you can set the alarm early and start the day off with some hockey. Then either be on a good mood or a #### mood, depending on the result.
That said, most likely missing this one. Just too tired today as is.
Quote:
I just picked up Dustin Wolf in fantasy, but I hope he loses this game. Maybe like 3-1 good guys with an ENG lol. Or even better we shut them out 3-0 :evil: I wanna see our boys BUZZING and pushing the pace today! LFGW!!!
Quote:
This is gonna be a tough one. Hopefully the secondary scoring can step up.

Not sure what Ek was doing on that play

JFC. Tie up in front
Quote:
Damn it! Don't just let him stand in front of Gus Bus. Push him away!
Quote:
Gus will have to steal this game for the wild. Can't see them scoring more than 2 or 3 goals tonight.
That being said, some of our bottom 6ers have nice wheels & speed - I like that. Too bad they've got stonehands too.
Trenin is a really bad hockey player.
Man I Miss Kirill

Where is Kirill when you need him
Quote:
We don’t play good without Kirill in recent years
Team is playing better tho so theres some hope
Quote:
Losing this game AND finding out tomorrow that Kaprizov is out for a prolonged time would be……woof.
Quote:
This feels like one of those games where Boldy steps up and just gets like 4 points. I seem to remember him doing that when Kap has gone down in the past
Quote:
This is going to be such a "Kaprizov appreciation game."
Quote:
Wild without Kaprizov = Man City without Rodri
Quote:
It is a little concerning how much our offense runs through Kap. We got such a good blue line that they are feeding and creating opportunities but without Kaprizov to slow it down and do some whacky 360 passes, we look like we aren’t generating good opportunities.
Quote:
This game is getting Kaprizov even more mvp votes than his on ice performance
Quote:
Not only are we missing Kirill but apparently we’re also playing against the refs. Nice.
I Shot the Sheriff

Can the refs stop letting opponents ride our ####ing players

Unwatchable. Clown league
Quote:
I think we are being punished by the league for beating McD. literally no reason for these dog #### calls
Quote:
Why did the Oilers have to be so jealous of us……
Quote:
Refs got their mortgage on Calgary
Quote:
Seeing Ek get high sticked again makes me wonder if he has a bonus in his contract for drawing a certain amount of penalties
Quote:
Don’t deserve to be winning but some of the calls aren’t helping

Tar and feather this ref

Gotta overcome #### reffing if we're gonna be a good team this season, that's just a fact of life.

Definitely a top 3 worst reffed game I've watched this season, for any team.

Does an axe swing that would make Paul Bunyan proud then looks confused when they call it
Quote:
How the #### are you allowed to continue officiating in the NHL if you make a call like that?
Quote:
Stay in your ####ing crease if you don’t wanna get touched, ridiculous

Are these loser Calgary fans seriously chanting refs you suck?

"GO flames go" I believe
Posposil from Kadri on the PP

That's weak he just stripped him of the puck

goalie isn't in the crease, has the puck, and he got all stick on stick.
literally a perfect play by lauko and the refs are just miserably bad
Quote:
man what the ####
Quote:
Flames player uncovered out front.
Quote:
Aaaaand they score on a bull#### penalty of course
Quote:
Hopefully Pospisil doesn’t take out another one of the Wild.
Quote:
Wild how free power plays lead to goals
Quote:
Always a PP goal against on horse#### penalty calls too.
Quote:
Congrats on a bs ref goal

I know the refs aren't betting on the game, but I also wouldn't blame someone one bit for thinking they are.

JUST BECAUSE HARTMAN IS A RAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU GET TO IGNORE WHEN PEOPLE ARE BEATING ON HIM

They tried to murder Hartman, but that's allowed since he's already lying down on the ice.
Quote:
What the actual ####
Quote:
Un ####ing real.. Hartman took a few heavy cross checks to the back THEN WE ####ING GIVES HIM A CROSS CHECK TO THE ####ING NECK right in front of that dumb #### zebra. Terrible officiating
Quote:
I mean…chicken egg type of thing. What else is a guy supposed to do? Hartman has done fantastic this year of keeping his cool…and look what he gets in return.
Quote:
Honestly just laughable
Quote:
What the ####.
Egregious. Deplorable. Seriously what the ####.
Quote:
Hartman gets assaulted, Vladar gets a 9.9 on his dive, and the Wild get ####ed. Cool cool.

Make up call for letting Weegar cross-check Hartman in the neck

Quote:
Another horse#### call against us.. I swear one year I wanna document all the times this happens to us. Couple of our losses this year are the direct result of awful game management.
Quote:
I would very much like to punish the ref somehow. Not by cross checking him in the throat, but somehow.
Quote:
I've seen three penalties this game called against the Wild that should've been coincidental or non-penalties... and I missed the first half of the game and two of them resulting in Calgary goals. I am not one that normally complains about refs, but holy hell.

If I were Hynes I grab a check at the podium and start filling out the fine while I'm saying #### THESE PIECE OF ####S REFS! Heres my fine.

Whatever, #### Calgary and their bum fans
Quote:
Boldy-Eriksson Ek-Rossi-Hartman blow the skills competition point.
Quote:
you know what we stole a ####ing point that's okay with me
Quote:
Take the pint but that shootout minus Freddy was embarrassing
Quote:
Gus kept us in the game. Rossi with 2 points and the game tying goal. You couldn't ask more of him, he stepped up even if he doesn't play on the first line.
But knowing Hynes, a demotion to the third/fourth line will follow when Nutcharello & Kap return, because he didn't score on OT/shootout.

It's going to sting if we lose tonight. Flamers 2 points against the Rags today and 2 against the Wild today
Quote:
The Flames now being 1st in our division and FIVE points ahead of us does not spark joy at all.
Quote:
The Flames would be such an easy team to cheer for if only I didn’t hate them so much. Bunch of no names playing with heart and determination. Things the Oilers seem to be short on this year.
Quote:
Comes down to leadership and heart and desire.
Quote:
The Flames are legit. I’m happy for them. I guess I’m not a typical oiler fan though. Born and raised in BC
Quote:
Their team is playing very well. Solid/very good goaltending does wonders
Quote:
Didn't have the Flames being a superior team than the Oilers on my bingo card for this season.
Quote:
Was just coming to post this, it’s bizarro world. They are completely outplaying the oilers in most of the matchups when someone rolls through both towns. All this star power getting pawned by that squad.
Quote:
Flames actually work hard. We were absolute chumps last game. Pathetic showing
Quote:
Means nothing when skinner is in net and gives up 3 goals on 10 shots.
Quote:
Oilers should be embarrassed but somehow I doubt they are.
Quote:
I still hate that team n city.
f*** Calgary

Knob says:
“We need to score more goals,”
He forgot the part about ... if I'm starting Skinner.
Quote:
"we need to score way more goals than Skinner lets in but even after 1 goal Stu gives up and so do I plz fire me"
Quote:
Oilers not seeking a trade for a goalie "they're gonna sink or swim with Skinner right now".
Well hope they're wearing life jackets.
Quote:
J.Skinner is the only option.
No one else is going to waive their NMC and the ones without NMC have no value.
Quote:
Skinner has probably the weakest 6 and 7 holes of any goalie in the league. People used to bitch about Koskinens glove? Nowhere near the level of weakness as Skinner under the arms. And the whole league knows it
Quote:
Everything points to an Oilers blowout loss. Depleted lineup, Oilers player on After Hours, Skinner not making enough saves, end of a 7 games in 12 days stretch, I think I’m gonna stay out of the GDT tonight

Wild knew what they were doing, down 2 in the 3rd at the end of a road trip they went with a strategy of:
- Hit Vladar with purpose, get him off his game
- draw a penalty, knowing that game management is there anyway
- Score on the PP, then pull the goalie and go all out to tie with the EN
That's a team that doesn't have a loser mentality. But glad the Flames don't have that either and came out on top after all. Wild can take their point to the Central, whatever. Flames deserved that win for sure.
