[PGT] Still allergic to scoring. Flames lose 2-1

[Duffalufagus]

Starting to think this team doesn’t have another gear. Scoring chances on that game heavily favoured Vegas. Rittich was great. The team in front of him looks like ####.

[Saint Troy]

Just a gutless effort from a lot of guys not named Tkachuk...

[SportsJunky]

Fleury played well. So did Rittich. I enjoyed the game. Flames could easily have won with a bounce or two.

Moving on!

Yes. Still unthinkable. 7-3-0 in the last 10 games and I think they’ve played well enough to win 2 of those 3 losses. I’m not all that worried.

Lindholm tripped the shift prior to Engelland's goal. Gaudreau blatantly interfered with and crosschecked late in the game.

It's so frustrating how the refs continually change the standards in the 3rd.

NHL should be embarrassed about that game. Flames deserved better. I guess this is what happens when you spent half a billion for a hockey team...

Its a tie game...freak out all you want

both teams scored two goals

[---Hatrick---]

Really frustrating to see a disallowed goal that could have went either way in my opinion have as big of a factor in a game.
Played a good road game for the most part. I feel like the goal scoring is bound to come around again.
Sky isn’t falling in my eyes as it is for many posters here. It’s a long season, and teams go through streaks. Both hot and cold.

Rittitch played great, the goal should have counted, and it's our first mini slump of the season.

Not too worried at all. Other than Tampa every team has gone through trials and tribulations this year. It sucks to let San Jose back into the picture so soon, but the Flames never tend to make things easy!

Froliks time looks to be done. Sit him and make some changes.

[kermitology]

This is going to be the first round 4 and out.

Why is it goalie interference if the goalie’s stick happens to get caught up on a player outside the crease?

Paging the flames from the first 3/4 of the season, where did ya go?

[saXon]

-Flames lose 2
“Flames lose 2, yet just had a 7 game winning streak ”

-Flames lose 3
“Flames lose 3, yet just had a 7 game winning streak ”

When are the excuses going to stop?

Six million dollars men do not show up for work for more than two weeks. Can we call up the wonderwoman?

[djsFlames]

Gonna take some time off, will come back when the results start to match the games again. I'm not going to watch to see us get duped out of close games.

Just unnecessary stress that nobody needs during such a great season. Playoffs are the only time it's worth getting your blood pressure up.

We deserved better than we got tonight. Beautiful goal gets pried away from us over a couple guys' poor opinions. That's not the NHL I want to watch. Seeing every second goal get called back lately sucks the fun out of the game.

Bennett did not look good

I agree, we would sweep Vegas.

Lineup could use a shot in the arm for sure. I’d like to see Lazar get a look. Dube and Valimaki would be nice additions too.
