Feels like a tug of war with the team lately with half elevating their games in amazing ways and half looking to sabotage the other halfs work in any way possible.
Hopefully they all get on the same page again soon.
I miss that shutout hockey.
Not sure how reasonable it is to use the term "lately" when this is the first game back after 3 weeks off.

Honestly this quick reaction after Mangi's goal cracked me up so much I missed the Seattle goal right after as I went back to grab this screenshot. Thankfully I caught up in time to see Tkachuk's winner!
The look when you've just been Loaf'd.

Great game. It's a little sad that we've won in the new barns of Seattle, NY Islanders, and Detroit before winning a game in Las Vegas. Boys gotta bring Jobu in the playoffs or next season.

What a game. 6 goals is always so fun. And holy smokes, this team is going to have a ridiculous home-game deficit. I'll be disappointed if we can't make those up in a full barn.
Zadorov not getting enough credit for that first goal...no look pass. We can blame the goalie but he stared straight ahead and looked like he was gonna rip one on net...didn't even glance at Gaudreau

At least we will get to see one Tanev brother play tonight?
Quote:
We need to trade for Tanev
Quote:
On the wrong team and wrong position, but I guess it’s something? Maybe we can get him next year and have two sets of brothers if we keep Hayden and Cale.
Edit: been brought to my attention it’s Haydn, without the e…
Quote:
Im so mad there will be no Tanev vs Tanev
Quote:
Same, I was really looking forward to that.
Quote:
Tanevs parents must have strong genes, they look exactly the same lol

Let's not do what we did last night.

Look I’m not going to give up on playoffs until at least game 60. Time to hit some strides though.

Well ####. That no look fake shot and pass was masterclass.
Quote:
Yep that was coming
Quote:
Man he was way out of position there. Love Johnny Hockey though.
Quote:
Blackwell knew he ####ed up and left his guy wide open.
Quote:
God driedger likes to come far out.
Quote:
driedger needs to not be that far out for every shot
Quote:
The difference in passing ability is massively apparent.

Reminder: the flames are very good

FUUUUUUCK

And it leads to the lead for Calgary.
What a f**** joke you f**** Zebras....

SMOOTH ####

Someone throw a tomato at the refs for me smh
Quote:
Geadreau is just a little pest. So annoying to play against
Quote:
Johnny is so damn good
Quote:
Academy award winner Johnny Gaudreau

It's gonna be a tough one choosing the MVP for Calgary. It's either Gaudreau or the refs.

My (6 y/o) kid: "the flames suck mom, why are they so mean?!"
Normally we don't make a habit of saying things suck, but she gets a pass for Calgary.
Quote:
LOL. I think the Flames are trying to channel their inner Kings team from the last decade. Or Vegas. They did the exact same type of crap.
I do think that, unfortunately, this type of over-the-edge play is what the league expects 'winners' to have.
Quote:
That being said, the refs need to clean this out. I am seeing a lot of late hits from the Flames.
Quote:
Why don't they ever call interference anymore?
Quote:
First 30 was good. The last 8 minutes have been atrocious.
Quote:
Maybe it’s my past Canucks fan coming out but I think every game the Flames should start with a full team fight
Quote:
If any team want to beat us they just have to forecheck a little bit.

Ugh, Driedger looked like he thought he had his glove up to cover enough of the gap between the post, and the puck hit that millimeter window needed to bounce in
Quote:
Can’t let them pass 15 god damn times in front of the goal
Quote:
This game is kind of nuts
Gooncic

BTW: Gooncic with another stupid move just shooting after the whistle was blown....

Damn. Letting a joker like Lucic score .. sigh!!

Go back to Easter Island, Lucic. ####ing Hunchback of Notre Dame orc

He looks like a Bond villain.

Lucic wears velcro skates cuz he never learned how to tie his shoes.
Quote:
Lucic with the missed crosscheck call on Gio
Quote:
Lucic is such a freakin goon. How many times has that nose been busted up?
Quote:
Lucic is one bad dude!
Quote:
I hate Lucic he's a piece of work
Quote:
Lol Lucic just tried to murder Soucy on that hit
Quote:
#### Lucic dude
Quote:
Please please someone drop lucic

Once again, Lucic: piece of ####
Quote:
Lucic? More like poocic. ####ing got his ass

I feel like Lucic has been in the league for 20 years
Tkachuk with a quick answer for the GWG
Quote:
Jesus. Why can't they just defend after a lead or a tie up. SO many quick goals let in.
Quote:
I just went through a roller coaster of emotions.
Quote:
OMFG, this game.
Quote:
That Tkachuk reverse hit was pretty baller, not gonna lie.
Quote:
Dude PLEASE!
Quote:
It would be cool to hold/extend a lead at some point. Just an idea
Quote:
I went from excited to sad real quick there
Quote:
Are you ####ing kiddin me?! Argh!
Quote:
We let them get one back right after we got one right back. New level of complexity to us ####ting the bed
Quote:
…okay, what is happening?
Quote:
This can't be real right
Quote:
Man. I seriously don't know whether to laugh or cry. They work hard to score and seem to give them back so easily.
Hanifin ices it with the EN
Quote:
Ah jesus. This is grim.
Quote:
I blame the guy who stupidly said he’d rather a regulation loss than an OT loss. F you
Quote:
Probably shouldn't have pulled the goalie with the way that period was going
Quote:
Flames 13-0-1 when leading after the second.
Kraken 0-12-1 when behind after the second.
Those were the two most depressing stats they could have shown.
Quote:
I blame the GM
I blame the coaching
I blame the players
I blame my two cats.
Back to your regular scheduled programming
Quote:
Seattle spent $10M on some awful goalies.
Quote:
It looks like Koskinen in the net for Cracken. Pucks go through Driedger like he's not there.
Quote:
Seattle might as well have picked up Price at this point.
Marky rocking a great save % tonight too
Kraken losing in regulation is the best result for the Oilers *spit*
Quote:
I'm of the opinion that teams that lose to the Flames should be bag-skated after the game and actually have to work.

We'll see if we can play at home for our next game on the 11th.
I know there's Covid and everything but the Flames' schedule has been amazing this year. First games back after 3 weeks off and 5 in a row on the road. You can only laugh at this point. Thankfully they are fantastic on the road.
