I love the leave early haters. Maybe they have a perfectly good reason to leave early and are just glad they got to squeeze in some live hockey before hand.
I'll admit I leave early in blowouts either way. But I bet a lot of others do too, that have 2.5 hour drives back home after the game. Am I less of a fan because I leave early, yet drive 5 hours 30+ more games a year just to watch my favorite team play live?

I leave in the 2nd period a lot because my gf gets up at 430am for work and games end too late. I stay if I can, usually

How does he keep the puck on his stick? it's mesmerizing. You can see the puck rolling and quick quick he has the puck settled down.

If you have a counter point about our fans actually being better than what I'm describing than fine, that's what discussion boards are for, and I love debate.
But just saying my opinion is annoying and telling me to stop talking about it is just stupid.

Flames fans gave the team multiple standing ovations after LOSSES towards the end of last season.
That's all I have to say.

I know. I just don't get it. I keep watching, thinking it should be knocked off his stick. Filthy mitts.

I hope they deploy that Hudler-Granlund-Gaudreau line together for the MTL game. They're going to embarrass those Habs in the Bell Center. What a magnificent showing they had in the third period.
By extension, they could open up more room for Monahan. And they should put Ferland with Monny. They'd make a good pairing.

Yet only 18,500 show up tonight. Why do the Oilers sellout every game despite being so awful?

Last year the flames finished October with a record of 5-5-2.
This year, 6-4-2.
It just seems like they are a much better team compared to last year....

It's Halloween. A lot of people can't go because they have kids.

Gaudreau got the firehelmet
Also I can attest to the fact that Gaudreau got a big ovation during the warmup announcement, and basically after each of his impressive shifts. You can tell he's the focus of most fans.

And he utterly deserves it too. All over the ice all the time, and greasy as a 50's pompadour!
He totally broke my "ya know" meter though....

I listened to the last 15 minutes on the radio and the fans seemed pretty loud.
Anyways, this whole conversation has put a damper on a thread that should be focused on the amazing performance by Johnny. Simply amazing.

You can just tell he knows he's the luckiest guy in the world right now. Just loves the situation he's in.

I missed what Hartley said about Forzani. Do you know if there is a video of it?

The 'excited to be part of this organization' meter is almost broken too.
