When your top guys are scoring and you capitalize on your PP chances you're giving yourself a good chance at winning. Solid W that the team desperately needed.
The flames are 4 points out of a playoff spot, they are also 10 points out of a miniscule shot at Bedard with 5 teams needed to beat them in the league standings.
There is no reason to cheer for losses in my opinion.

That was a good effort after a humiliating defeat. The real test comes when they play Vegas next. Can they continue with another good effort??? Stay tuned.
Flames got their asses handed to them last night by the Kings.
5:2 Ducks
Quote:
I said to myself last game, well Vancouver was on the 2nd game of a back to back, and the Ducks should look like the faster and better team, yeah that didn't pan out so well, lol.
Hopefully they can give the fans something after that very poor showing last game.

Ritchie is such a piece of ####.

Calgarys dad trip appears to have rolled through town, which means that their kids put their own fathers through that disgraceful performance last night
And they have already conceded to Nick Ritchie. Fantastic start boys

I'm here now. Lots of frustration going on with the fans. Also I'm sober, send halp
Radio silence on Nesterenko from both Stephens and Dillman, haha.
Quote:
Stephens would rather talk about food and music. I used to think a lot more highly of him.
Quote:
LOL, that zone exit totally backfired on Comer
Quote:
Man we suck. Lmao
Quote:
Noooo not him haha
Quote:
What was Gibson mad about? Besides letting cry baby Stetcher score.
Quote:
Man.. Comtois is so bad. What a career regression he has had. Holy ####
Quote:
Could be worse, always could be worse. Oh look, here comes the 2nd period.
Quote:
Well that was an awful period
Quote:
Ducks with a 0 hit period in the first.
Pretty impressive considering how little they had the puck.

Go Ducks, Douse the Flames !!!
NHL Record 25 Straight Once Upon A Time !!!

The game they broke the record was with Jagr at the honda center. I was there.
Quote:
If I could get any consolation from this season, it'll hopefully be seeing the Flames flop and miss the postseason.
#### the Flames
The Eakins Swarm
Quote:
What was Eakins talking about / pointing at? “Guys keep losing, I have a perfect spot for Bedard in that corner there, got the nameplate and everything!”
Quote:
Anyone catch how commentators said “Eakins didn’t work on systems with the new guy” like does he even have a system other than stay on the outside and chase the puck??
Quote:
I had the same thought. Can't teach a system that doesn't exist.
Quote:
Yea he said “just take it all in and have fun” sounds like what you tell your girlfriend at her first game.
Quote:
Why do we rim the puck around the boards in the offensive zone so much? We’ve had so many turnovers like that
Quote:
He doesn’t work on systems with the older players either, I think we’d be a playoff contender if we had a competent coach. Pacific division isn’t good enough for it to be as hard to make the playoffs as it is in any of the other 3, especially the east.

Quote:
Nevermind, tank it then !!!
Quote:
Good stuff so far. Shouldnt be able to come back from 3-0 hopefully.
Quote:
Why we all of a sudden since sudden look like we’re on back to backs? This includes Gibson.
Quote:
That was a bullet and this one is done.
Quote:
Unwatchable. Most uninspiring group of veteran leaders in franchise history
Quote:
Strome blows
Quote:
Toffoli is the calibre of player Comer could've become IMO. don't think it's gonna happen now tho

Pathetic
Quote:
What is offense?
Quote:
Thank you lord for another L. We need a top 3 pick this draft
Quote:
I also enjoy how once this team trails by 3 goals in the third period, the DJs and in-game entertainment completely stop trying to pump up the crowd.
This isn’t a second-rate fanbase, we’ll get excited when there’s something to cheer about, which is basically nothing many nights
Quote:
He likes to shoot!
Edit: comtois fail
Quote:
40 shots against, one more time.
Eakinisms
Quote:
Zegras not playing with Terry is such an Eakin-ism.
Like WTF.
Quote:
Love seeing the Flames lead / win tonight. Because some people don’t hang on the first drop…need to repeat the process. And that is their playoff run to me.
Quote:
Flames get biased officiating when up by two. Zzz...
Quote:
Gibson is so good.
Ducks just bleed chances and he just never seems phased.
He's probably made like 6 stops from Flames all alone in the slot.
Jealous.
