Big difference. Except for whatever reason you decided to take a shot at me whatever enjoy yourself since that is what u get off on.

That was a well played game with a ton of effort and one of the first things I see in the PGT is you whining we were outplayed for two periods. (wut)

That's the problem with the very vocal minority who are always complaining. It never seems to end.

I was expecting loss.

Then I was happy with a point.

And I'm ecstatic about the win! What a game by Chucky, Bennett and Ferland. Mike Smith is fuggin' amazing. I thought Rinne was excellent as well. Good goaltending dual. Especially by Smith in OT!!

I'm getting used to having an elite goalie in net every night.

Hasn't been a weak goal on Smith all season long. Unreal. I remember this feeling with Kipper oh so long ago

Agree I said the same thing. That move off the sideboard waa very Iggy like. Tkachuk is the power forward the Flames have been lacking since Iggy. Not in the same elite class but he has a similar game. Great performance started the scoring and ended the shoot out.

Benzo looked more comfortable on the wing with Janko down the middle. I predict that line will contribute to the score sheet tomorrow.

22 year old left winger Sam Bennett? Yeah me too.

Can we please not make that his nickname. Surely we can do better.

The same Gulutzan who seems oblivious to Kulak outplaying the likes of Jokipakka and Bartkowski.

I already pointed out once before that you took this comment completely out of context. He did NOT say that 40/40 was some sort of target, or 'the right' mix for Jankowski, as you are suggesting.

You're completely off base with that comment. Stop bringing it up, you're just embarrassing yourself.

Samuel Benzoate.

That's bad.

[dammage79]

You know, I got Flamed so many times for saying Bennett to LW, all the way back to his 19 year old Sam Bennett season. Then I got Flamed for saying Janko will be a better center than Bennett in the long run. I like the way thing looked tonight for both players. Janko will need a few games to settle in but he certainly did not look out of place at all tonight. which is a significant sign he's a keeper. But I am glad the fan base knew keeping Janko out of the big club was wrong this season. Cannot wait to see how his season progresses now.

He should really shoot more.

Yup he was gpg in his playoffs/memorial cup in juniors. Hands down the 3rd best pick in a stacked draft

I quite enjoyed the preds fans comments; they seem switched on and kinda what I'd expect from Nashville.

Except for the guy who said we didn't deserve a point, he's an idiot.

I thought Jankowski was solid in attack but I enjoyed how easy it looked for him disrupting plays with his long reach. With him doing that and Bennett getting some speed up on the break, I'd anticipate a few breakaway goals, provided they stay together.

I thought tonight was Bennett's best game of the season - he deserved to get rewarded. Oh well, if he keeps playing like that, the points will come.

I thought Backlund had a good game as well. But I was very frustrated with Hamilton.

Overall, the Flames were by far the better team 5 on 5 and it was a travesty that they were down 2 nil. That penalty call on Jankowski was ridiculous.

It was a well deserved win. Tkachuk got it done. And great to see Ferland get one.

The Flames were the better team in each of the last two games - hopefully they are starting to build something.

[Jeff Lebowski]

Bennett was fantastic showing many aspects of his skillset. Great moves on that chance where he walked the guy, incredible desire and strength on his forechecks and devastating hits. He deserved to be on the scoresheet. Even though he's pointless he continues to attack the same way and never loses confidence. He's just relentless and its impressive.

Lazar was also unlucky and it seems he's gripping it. Once those guys get some points the dam is going to burst. For a first game on the road Jankowski did well. This top 9 looks like they're going to be fun to watch. Young and relentless.

Great character come back win and hopefully they start rolling.

Benzo: Benzodiazepines, sometimes called "benzos", are a class of psychoactive drugs whose core chemical structure is the fusion of a benzene ring and a diazepine ring.

He's good but not psychoactive good.

It's a bad nickname. Stop it.

[old-fart]

Full disclosure... I had to leave for an event and didn’t watch from about the kid point of the second period.

This crow is so tasty....
