I'm a little jealous that Chicago jerseys don't have a sponsor logo.

Decent road period for my guys. Flames had some better chances with Zary and Pospisil.

Yup. I thought there should have been a tripping call on the Pospisil chance too.

Yea, no idea how there wasn’t a hook or trip on that play.

Great period! Love the tenacity of this group. Wolf has a calming presence.

PBP guy is very decent. What a relief.

Flames really aren't sitting back and admiring their 3-0 start. Just forging ahead with their "rag tag", unpredictable roster.

You can't even really say who the first line is lol.

It's actually kind of amazing. Reminds me of 2015 with their perseverance and how they catch teams off guard.

IDK Gio, Pospisil was leaning hard on the power move. If the D-man avoids a hold, and the Forward gets a quality chance, that seems to be a "play-on" moment.

They look much better than in last season's "efforts" against the Hawks. Good stuff!

New PBP guy sounds like Brendon Parker & Rick Ball combined. He's likeable.

Enjoyed Kelly's dig at Ball saying he never liked him.

Really like him. I was expecting a low budget, cringe PBP guy but he sounds excellent.

I'm behind but man, Lomberg is awesome. He might be our best player so far this year

Wolf is an interesting goalie. His best physical attribute is how quick and athletic he is. His best intangible asset is how calm and efficient he is. He can move as quickly as any goalie but he doesn’t waste movement.

He got pretty wild sometimes last year. This year - small sample but he’s a lot less prone to it.

The tempo, determination and energy of the Flames is pleasurable to watch.

Their young guys will improve and their veterans are providing strong leadership.

Bottom line, Conroy has put together a strong coaching staff and added some solid and mentally proficient players.

My prediction …

They’ll be in the fight …in a high percentage of games.

Like the mix.

Huberdeau has already made like 4 or 5 beautiful passes this game. I've been really impressed.

Noticing they are not making a lot of those D to D passes. It’s up ice and go.
