Valiant effort in the final five minutes, but those first two periods were awful.

Such a Flames way to end the decade. Give us hope only for it to be dashed.

Nice try though. Lets start playing on time next game.

Could’ve had this one if Rittich could start the game on time. Talbot deserves Thursday nights start.

Hard to win games when you're down 3-0 after 1. This is getting annoying. Where's that last 5 minute effort 55 minutes ago?

On the bright side, playoff Bennett showed up.

They were the better team in reality but they were sleepy to start and goaltending didn’t help them out.

Only watched the last period of play.

Rittich, Bennett, Tkachuk, Andersson and Monahan led the way.

Johnny picked it up at the end.

I'm at the point where I'm grading the team on effort.

Your guys spotted the 'Hawks too much too early. Bennett put the Flames on his back to make a game of it, with his effort.

I am happy with the 'Hawk win, Lehner bailed us out...

Happy New Year to all, and see you for the next meeting.

We shouldn't be celebrating how close they came to tying it.

3 softies by Rittich
Lehner with at least 4 unbelievable saves in the first 2 periods
The Flames lose 5-3 after a great push in the 3 period
Flames only played well for 5 minutes

Sorry guys, not all of those things can be true.

Not the greatest effort, but they should have won this game.

Can't remember which Hawk it was, but he tripped two Flames as Calgary was vacating the defensive zone in a span of about 2 seconds. Neither one called. Unbelievable.
