Lets hope for a focused and driven group of guys this game, call-ups have hurt their playoff hopes but a couple of wins in a row here puts them right back in the picture. I predict big games from Hathaway and Wolf and I just wanted to pop in here and finally give a big shout-out to Drury18 - I haven't posted on the forums near as much as in the past but I read as much as ever and a big part of my reading has gone to your threads Drury, it is greatly appreciated and I feel we as Flames fans here at CP have more knowledge about what's in the system than any other fan of the Flames or of other teams for that matter and a big tip of that hat goes in your direction. There is always supporting characters - PMM continues to provide great insight after the Heat left and sureLoss is sureLoss but like I said I just wanted to thank the posters who keep their finger on the pulse of the affliate. Cheers my friend!
Edit: Also that gif brought back such an awesome memory, me and my bros cry-laughed the first time we saw that simpsons episode hahaha

The Flames broadcast appears to be down. It's been dead air for the last 15 minutes. No pregame show so I have no idea the scratches or starters.

Oh, this is going to be a difficult game to watch. They can't say Poirier right.

Flames looking sloppy on this PK. Stars with 3 good chances in front.
Hathaway gets out on a shorthanded 2 on 1 and draws a penalty as Rallo trips him him.
4 on 4 hockey coming.

Stars getting all sorts of chances in front of Thiessen and he's being forced to make big saves early on.
Shots are 7-0 Stars only 8 minutes in.
