This is just how the Jets play. Give it their all the first 15 minutes, coast through the rest of the game.

Just stick with thjem and things will be fine, game will get easier

Johnny should just chuck that puck into the scrum in front. Get more pucks in the dirty areas and create some chaos.

If he really is as bad you you say he is, how would the Flames ever manage to get rid of what would then be a horrible contract?

But the fact of the matter is, I should be admonished for even taking your post seriously.

Treliving should be fired if he doesn't expose him to Seattle.

Most coaches I know, would prefer, in that case, to take away the passing option, and leave the puck carrier, with back pressure, to the goaltender.

CGY needs to be a bit cleaner in their zone. Connect those smart passes and exit clean. Be smart with the puck - as they know how to do. GFG!!!

The Flames have been the slowest team with the least energy coming out to start their games out of all the games I've watched so far this playoffs. Incredibly frustrating watching the casualness and sloppiness to start each of their two games.

Why? That is not how that line plays. Maybe Bennett and Lucic should do that, but I would prefer our most skilled player try to use his skills.

Was a given that they would start with jump. They know its desperate times and a short series.

Just have to weather it and take this over.

Maybe wait until after the season to advocate dumping one of the best captains in the league.

When they pan in with that top camera it looks like a video game.

If you call that icing don’t you have to call interference?

That line can't score during 5v5 playoff hockey - so whatever they're doing, it doesn't work.

That said, Flames effort isn't bad here at all - one rough shift burnt us. Just keep working, and get to the net.

He was one of my favorite players before, but has he been that good of captain? Playoff record is crap and we pretty much got swept by the Avs last year when we were 2nd in the league.

How can that be icing, when Morrisey interferes with Reider on the chase?

WTF? the other guys stepped up to the plate.

But based on karmic bitching last game Gio should get a hat trick for me today.
