I've been to the Flame's last 4 road games and they've scored 4 goals.
Yet they've scored 10 in 2 periods at home.
I'm doing it wrong

I just hate it when teams just lay down and give Anaheim a easy game.

Not badly per se , it was a tight game. Flames just couldn't find the room they usually do. And Fleury stood on his head when they got the few chances they did. It really was a very tight game. I would give credit more to the Knights for Stiffling the Flames than anything.

Going forward, if that's a "bad" flames game, then I'm ok with it. Bad games happen, and the team still had plenty of chances and could have stolen this game.

not surprised to be honest... after getting smoked by calgary a couple of days ago, VGK was going into the game with a major chip on their shoulders.
Glad to hear Rittich was solid in the loss though.
Smith will start next game; if playing Arizona isn't going to get him fired up, nothing will

Only caught the dying minutes of the third. What an annoying time for a hockey game to be on.

Tkachuk wasn’t taunting Vegas. He was calling out whoever slewfooted Hathaway with 5 seconds left in the game on Monday.

How bad is James Neal? Didn't think it would be a bad contract from year 1. Brutal.

I didn't even watch this one, but one positive is that Rittich had a 92.9% save percentage. The trend of Rittich providing quality goaltending is just getting longer and longer. It isn't even necessary to say anything more but I just want to because it's cool to think about how well Rittich is doing.
Considering the games he's started, this is the game log:
Oct 13 - 92.3%
Oct 21 - 97.8%
Oct 23 - 92.5%
Oct 30 - 96.6%
Nov 3 - 80.0% (3 goals against)
Nov 10 - 100.0%
---------------------
Nov 17 - 92.3%
Nov 19 - 90.9%
Nov 21 - 92.5%
Nov 23 - 92.9%
A quality start (QS) is when a stops at least a league average percentage of shots or stops at least 88.5% of shots while allowing 2 or less goals. This year the league average save percentage is 90.8%.
So, in his time as the backup, he had 5 QS out of 6. In his time as the starter, he has had 4 QS out of 4. That's a 90% QS%!

You tell me? It actually blows my mind just how bad he looks out there. Its incomprehensible and doesn't look like an NHLer.

I was at the game. He played well, was physical and engaged.
Curious to see what you were watching tonight?

At the end of the game on Monday he said see you Friday to their bench when it was 7-2.

It also happened seconds after someone slewfoot Hathaway by the benches as mentioned. It appeared as though Tkachuk took offence to that.

That is exactly why he said it...had nothing to do with the score. It was a BS hit in the last second of a 7-2 game
