Yup just stick with it. Maurice has them all fired up about the injuries and woe is us. Weather this storm. Need to act while Schiefele and Laine are out. With all the gamesmanship going on hard to know how injured they are.

I'd like to see Tkachuk be this elite player that he is supposed to be.

Yep, the Flames will be fine when they start the game in the second period.

Flames generating less than zero offense right now. Painfully boring game thus far.

I don’t know, I can remember when Datsyuk sucked in the playoffs too. I would prefer they keep doing what they do best.

Pretty even game so far.

Jets made the most of their best scoring chance. Flames could use more heavy forecheck on the jets d...

Sticking to the perimeter again, it's painful to watch - they have to keep skating hard here though and start getting more speed into their game.

Talbot is making me nervous so far this game. It's probably unfounded but I'm uneasy watching him.

Flames 4th line have lost each shift they have played.

I am not liking the "hope" plays that the Flames are making, in their own zone. If you are going to try to dump the puck out, you need to do it with more purpose, to safer areas, or just hoist the damn puck to the neutral zone.

He's a Flames goalie. It's a well earned feeling.

I believe Todd became a surgeon post career. I've got a signed Todd Harkins Flames jersey, make your best offer!

Ward should probably run 3 lines for awhile. 4th line is getting hemmed in every shift.

Time to bench Rinaldo again.

Run with 10 forwards. Rieder only on the PK.

Jets moving their feet. Flames, but so much.
