I've found that the search function and clicking on a name are often considered two searches, which, if done quickly enough, fall under the spam function, so both get cancelled.
I've taken to asking for the 'who's posted in here' search, then waiting 15-20 seconds before clicking any of the names on the list has fixed that.

I have been pretty down on Smith, but he made some pretty nice saves tonight, especially early. Sure it was a blowout and total shots were low, but if he didn't make those early saves, it could have been a different game.
He deserves some props tonight for sure.

Missed the last couple of games, but after watching this game they didn't give the Yotes very much. Smith played well and didn't let in any softies.
Like everyone here, it's fun watching this team compared to the last few years (minus 2014-15). It's even better to see both the top line and the 3M line clicking, so the opposition has to pick their poison.
Oh yeah... #GioNorris

After last night's game, Flames players are gold/silver/bronze in plus/minus for the entire league. Gio, Brodie and Lindholm. Backlund 10th and Gaudreau 11th. That is crazy.

In the second period the yotes IMO hemmed the flames in their own zone in the middle section peppering Smith with shots. If not for Smith, I could see the yotes scoring 3-4 goals.

I thought his positioning was much better, and only noticed one rebound I didn't like (however, there was only a Flame there on the doorstep so even there, maybe he was aware of that fact).
I chuckled at "pose to pose".

Great win, and more of what we come to expect from this team. Even with the slow start in the first, they still couldn't get shots on net. Then they came online, and the game was all but over.
Bennett, Jankowski and Neal looking good together is great news for our top 9. They make a lot of sense together, and can make for a very punishing trio. Good to see some results to build off of

Wow. I didn't think there was any fan base more delusional than Oiler fans, but I think we have a new champion with this guy, lol.
