Then he follows it up with a nice rush. I love to be proved wrong.

Yes, but he was probably referring to the shots that were on net, and how we needed to miss the net more.

Oh man, huge chance. Too bad Money couldn't convert.

[Strange Brew]

Wow. What a nice play.

[Monahan For Mayor]

Okay boys you deserve to reward yourself a PP goal here. Let's goooo.

[Nsd1]

Nice counter to Nashvilles pressure

[JurassicTunga12]

Lets have a good PP here.

[Jeff Lebowski]

Monahan strong play. With tv TO hope they start PP

[dammage79]

That first line though. Preds giving them a lot of space.

I think it was Mike Bossy who said he never tried to snipe corners, just shot at the middle of the net.

I think Bossy said the key was a quick release, not aim.

Let’s go score in 45 seconds.......Rinne it’s all your fault it’s all your fault

[Stay Golden]

Money hands came close to getting one there. Nice sep up.

[Jetfire]

Flames deserve to be leading right now.

[Cali Panthers Fan]

Monahan looks a lot faster this year. This bodes well for his 40 goal season.

Yeah he's definitely an underrated addition. I know some are grumpy that he's taken some ice time away from Jankowski but he does a lot of little things very nicely

[djsFlames]

With goaltending this is a really, really good team. No the defense may not even be stifling but they have so much possession with the players there that it's less of an issue and several smart two way forward up front that help defensively. Also two of the top five penalty drawers in the league.

Let's hope Smith can embrace the guy we saw when he first arrived.

Going to watch that as things progress, because generally Johnny wants/needs the puck. He’s the “carrier” on his lines so far in his career.

It's not a bad thing. It's a good thing. It's called having options.keeps the opposition guessing instead of knowing exactly what's gonna happen every time.

[GioforPM]

The ice looks bad already.

[EVERLAST]

Yes
