[PGT] Flames 3 Avs 2 in a SO

[Robbob]

I feel shame. I turned the game off after the 2nd.

[Manhattanboy]

Crazy. Bro texts me we tied it up so I downloaded Prime to my phone and caught the OT and SO in the departure lounge at the airport.

Sounds like Vladar had a good game.

Not really. 8-1 would mean Stl needs 5-1-1 and Min 5-2.

Stop being negative.

hoping Mr Iginla can tinker with him and Laing and whomever else in the lab over the offseason

Tonight's ATL is gonna be good. Especially if it includes comments from Vcr fans.

Uh… phrasing..?!

7-2 should do it, piggies.

And if that doesn't do it then it wasn't meant to be, because that means Stank Loo-is and Minny went out on heaters.

In which case, doesn’t look amazing for us…?

Yeah, at the end of the season, points percentage won't matter (because everyone will have played the same number of games), so the first tiebreaker will be RW.

A couple of weeks ago, that looked pretty good for the Flames, but their last 3 wins have all been in extra time, so it's unlikely they'll win that over Minnesota or St Louis if it comes to that.

It's nuts to think that if CGY wins and STL loses tomorrow, that CGY will get destiny back in their hands.

STL losing at home to Detroit isn't likely of course, but neither was the Flames winning tonight.

I wouldn’t call 4-2-1 and 4-3 a heater.

Like this idea. Put iginla in charge of teaching the big guys how to activate beast mode. To this day, there is no one in hockey that did that like iginla in his prime. 10% of what Iginla had in a guy like Klapka and you have a dominant middle six winger.

If the Flames go 8-1 they almost certainly beat the Wild. Seems unlikely they will go 5-1 in their other games considering their recent play

Flames control their destiny with the Wild already. 2 games in hand and a head to head=6 points

The same complaint that Huska all of a sudden shuts the team down after going up 1-0 and had them back off. The other team will push back, Huska didn’t change the system just like Bednar didn’t change his system.

Paulie, only 1 line brought their A game. That is why they played way more than usual. That’s fine, kind of makes up for the Dallas game.

Flames wouldn't have the tiebreaker over Wild if they tie them on points.

Wild have 33 RW, Flames have 26
