Thank goodness, or we might not ever hear the end of how the "Evil Troy Ward" ruined a prospect, and we better fire him on the ASAP Johnson get me Tokoyo.

Should be

Brodie-Bouwmeester
Butler-Wideman
Sarich-Giordano

Gio needs to get going and in the past he has always played well with Sarich.

You simply do not bench a guy who has his own ATB Commercial.

Once Iggy made his Scotiabank Commercial, he was basically immune from ever being kicked off the 1st line & Powerplay.

Hopefully TD Bank stays away from Jackman.

This is the worst time to be playing LA. I think the Flames matchup worse against the Kings than against any other team in the NHL. Tonight a loss = basement. It could force Feaster to pickup the phone and start shopping #12 and #34.

As a fan, I always want them to win so I hope they play really well and pull this one off.

I'm not very optimistic though.

Today=basement. They're already 15th in the west and the game hasn't started!

The crappy thing is, I don't see him shopping 12 or 34 but shopping for help for them. Maybe our first rounder to the Bruins for Kelly?

Win or lose at this point, to me is irrelevant, I just hope they play well and show some life. If they at least try and are in the game, I can live with this while hoping for a high draft pick.

I think we'll win this one. Not too excited to watch the game to find out though.

I honestly just hope for an entertaining game. I really don't care if they win or lose at this point because I don't think it matters. I'd love to see McGrattan get a crack at someone and I wanna see some nice moves, goals, hits and saves.

At this point I'm cheering for the Flames but it's kinda like playoff hockey to me... I just wanna see good hockey from any team other than the canucks and oilers.

It's a re-do tonight, the NHL feels bad for the Flames so they are letting us replay the game...

The losing scenario is a long term positive though. Not sure why blowing it up at this point would ever be considered to be a negative.

I think it is a sad reality that some fans feel obligated to cheer for losses, because we can't trust management's myopic view of the situation the Flames are in.

It's all about being positive...

Win = closer to the playoffs
Loss = closer to MacKinnon

it's a win/win situation!

I liked Gi-or-dano. Not this Jor-dano guy who struggles every night.
