This Flames team is just so much fun to watch right now. It has been an awful long time since I've spent all game day excited to watch like I am now. I know there is some inevitable regression coming in save and shooting percentages. But I think this teams work ethic will continue and I hope they keep surprising me. There are certainly some pieces here for the future and I think this is a better team right now than I was giving them credit for. Just can't afford any injuries to the top 4. That third pairing is just scary bad most every night. Go Flames!!
All 3 are in the dumps right now and I just dont think keeping them together will help any of them. I think Hartley has given Setoguchi plenty of chances on the PP the last few days to get things going...he is playing a little better, but not really being impactful. Im hoping he can give Sven the same opportunity.
Byron just needs to convert on one of the 3 breakaways per game he gets and he'll be fine...he's the least of my worries of that line.
Better to keep the disease isolated to one part of the body than having it spread throughout.

This is such a statement game for the Flames. The bolts are amongst the toughest competition we've faced this year. The result will say a lot about what tier of teams the flames are a part of.
#Flames lead the NHL in third period scoring with 17 goals and in 3rd period goal differential with a +10

OT but does anyone know where to buy the 3rd shoulder patches? I've looked online but had no luck but would stop by Fanattic or whatever when I'm home if they have them. Thanks.

Hopefully we see something from Sven tonight. Seems like he keeps slipping further and further down our prospect depth chart. Think he just needs to get some confidence.
I love the comments by Hartley on Jooris, but I loved how accountable he was going to Hartley and asking to see the play he got mixed up on and asking him to teach. Incredible character from that kid right now.
Also, can't get enough of him referring to a hard skate as "Fred and Barney". That image is too perfect in my brain.
