I cheered them loud and hard. But I was left wanting.
There were atleast a couple of times when Butler turned the puck over in the d zone but Berra bailed him out. Then Butler would hold a puck in the offensive zone that will create a chance for the Flames. Showed some feistiness as well when he took the penalty cross checking the Blues player.
O Brien was very involved in the game. Taking the puck deep, making solid passes. Was impressed with his game today.
Hudler is a magician. His entire shift prior to his goal, was quite a treat to watch.
It's all good man, in the end the Flames won. Didn't mean to pile on, either, as I imagine you feel bad enough anyway.

Killer Bs tonight. Berra was solid in net - though not tested as often as I would have expected. Byron (or Baron as my autocorrect called him on Twitter) has decided he's done with the AHL. Backlund was strong. Even Butler, after a couple bad giveaways early, was a positive contributor.
And the other killer B.... How in the hell the ref did not call that a major penalty is beyond me. That was a deliberate attempt to injure. Of course, knowing how Shanahan doesn't seem to care when Flames players (and Stajan especially) are injured by cheap shots, he'll probably get off with nothing.
My heart hasn't pounded like that for a game in a long time!
Can't even go to sleep now.
That OT was like the playoffs all over again. So pumped. What a game!

Nice win by the Flames tonight. Great last 5 minutes in regulation to tie it. I seem to like Colborne more and more each game. Great to see a local kid come through every time!
