[GT] Flames @ Canucks. Need that Killer Instinct

[bubbsy]

That's it let's throw the puck in areas where there are no teammates.

Flames sucked tonite. Frustrating.

[I_H8_Crawford]

Canucks were desperate, Flames aren't... That's the difference tonight.

Flames played SOFT tonight

those white towels looking pretty gross. looks like they're waving toilet paper

[btimbit]

[SilverGS]

I don't mind losing if the effort is there but this was pathetic

Terrible effort

[Machiavelli]

Last chance....GFG.

Playing a team that's facing elimination wasn't going to be easy. Nerves perhaps and unable to match the intensity. All they need is one lucky bounce

[mdubz]

Sedin empty netter coming up

They don't have the killer put em away. Van is playing better but the Flames just don't have that put it to bed instinct. A few extra days off before the next series would be good if they get there.

[bax]

For everyone calling this a pathetic effort, just relax. Do you know how tired those guys are? Things aren't going our way, but pathetic is not the right word to use

[FlamesNation23]

Goal off this faceoff for Russell. Book it

[-TC-]

I don't understand why the Flames stopped hitting....

[JiriHrdina]

Give the Canucks some credit here - they have played a very good game. Finally showing the push back that was expected.

[Robo]

our top line is completly nulified away from the dome

[Lanny_McDonald]

Flames deserved to lose tonight. Badly outworked and outplayed. Flames rarely penetrated the slot to earn a quality scoring opportunity. Better get their #### together for Saturday.

Jimmy seems to like the result

Exactly. We knew the Canucks were gonna be desperate tonight and they threw everything they had at us. Flames needed to match that intensity if they wanted to win, and they didn't do that. Just gotta learn from this and move on to Saturday. Get back to playing the way we know they can and close the series out at home.
