[PGT] Flames 4 Wild 2. Playoff hopes stay alive.

[Burning Beard]

Great game. Fun to watch important hockey still at this time of year. Some posters may feel differently judging from the last couple of days on here ...

Sharangovic is playing way less timid and it's nice to see. Coronato is looking really good. Hope they lock him up for 8 here.

They play the heavy teams well so you never know.

They seem to always prove me wrong too.

Lost count of the number of times I've counted them out, only for them to pull off an unlikely result.

Denying them may take until the very last day/game, if they don't pull it off.

Only reason I can see our odds going down is because the oilers clinched. Had they lost out that was another possible route for us

They are the team that plays with a chip on their shoulder.

Great win for the Flames. ON to the next one and play that game again. Get your voodoo dolls out and start poking the WIld and the Blues people!

After tonight? Is SN saying our odds went down after a win and Wild loss? Are they that in love with Oilers?

True but I'm thinking they probably lose that game, because good results for the Flames on the OOT have a tendency to not happen. And the Kings suck on the road this season.

Maybe I'm too pessimistic. We'll see what happens.

Theres a world where the flames win their next 2 and the wild or blues lose their next 2. Then game 82 doesn't even matter and we can give Parekh, Suniev, and whoever else we want a look before the playoffs begin

[dino7c]

If the Wild or Blues lose tomorrow it also gives a chance of them losing out...which would really open the door wide

Did the Wild look unbeatable to anyone tonight or against SJ?

SN would probably still drop their "odds"

Good on you Flames on the great win tonight !
And may the Nucks do you a sweet favor tomorrow evening.

we're gonna need a few more birthdays before this season is over.

Cant help you there this year. The play the 15th and 17th and mines the 16th. Unless the Flames win 6-3 both games. ( I'll be 36 not 63 ) before the old man jokes start lol

[Bill Bumface]

FINNEEEE Huska. I guess you were right.

Minny barely snuck by SJ giving up 7 I dont think Vancouver is a low quality opponent, especially on a b2b

Meh, Tocchet has one foot out the door on his way to Philly. Boeser and his agent are figuring out where he want to play next year. Pettersson is Pettersson. Canucks have zero to play for. Fans will be non existent.

Minnesota will be focused.

Utah beat the crap out of Seattle earlier this week, like their chances vs St L.more than Vancouver.

Vancouver just beat Dallas and Colorado, they have a chance. Minny was focused when they gave up 7 to SJ with zero penalty kills? They are sweating bullets imo

Vancouver just went into Colorado and beat the Avs pretty good. They played hard. A Saturday night game in Rogers Arena can be pretty decent even with no stakes for the home team.

I have a way better feeling from the Canucks beating Minny than I do Seattle beating the Blues.

Guess we will see.

[nieuwy-89]

That was fun. Impressive effort at home, in a high stakes game.

Thought all four lines looked good, everyone was contributing.

Love the team culture and identity.

Adding Klapka to my list with Weegar and Kadri: Flames players who enjoy dangling with the puck at the blue line when they’re the last man back.
