Penguins are some sore ass losers.

Good job avenging the last meeting Flames. Wasn't pretty, but you did it.

First lines mostly cancel each other out.
Depth for the win!

3M line holds the fort in the end.

Smith with a good game.

Ryan heating up on the latter half of the season. Frolik, Hathaway, Andersson, lots of guys who had a lot of fight tonight.

Have Smith and Rittich swapped their powers with each other?

Wooohooooo Flames!

He got dumped pretty hard last game - I wonder if he's hurt.

Spoiler!


Great win! Nice to see the skid ended, but man what a terrifying last couple minutes. Smith with a huge save on Malkin at the end, but got lucky that Crosby missed the far side on his one-timer at the end. He won't miss many of those. Scary to see talent like Crosby, Malkin and Kessel out there at the end.

Nice tip by Guentzel on the first Pens goal too.

Good game and glad to see them get a big 2 points.

Three assists for Derek Ryan today, by the way.

Typical crazy afteroon game. Thankfully the Flames came out on top in this one.

Smith with a huge game, and a big reason we won. Overall I thought the Flames played quite well. But man, the PK needs some work. Not gonna go far in the playoffs if you're allowing that many PP goals against.

Great game from the bottom 2 lines. Depth scoring for the win!

3M line was decent with a big goal from Frolik.

1st line was invisible for most of the game, and Johnny had a rough day. We're gonna need those guys to get going again if we want to stay atop the division.

Flames depth players and Smith won the game for them.

Top players with the exception of Giordano were AWOL for the most part.

Huge win.

Great win! hoping Smith has returned to form so that Rittich doesn't have as much pressure being the #1...

Great Win!

the Monahan line was matched up versus Sid... tough sledding; were quiet today, but so was the Crosby line 5v5.

i'll take that on the road every time

Looking forward to a long awaited ATL!

Pens were lucky to get this game close, Smith was solid. Crosby is scary good he finds ways to create goals out of nothing. Johnny where are you.

Had to beat two teams today, but the Flames pulled it off.

Smith solid. Some saves on Kessel and Crosby that were sneaky good, considering how those guys shoot.

Great win by the team, score flattered Pens with some dubious calls and some fortunate bounces whole on those PPs.

JG an off game. Not concerned.
