Made me nervous, but love how this team can win in any situation …. close game, wide open, up by 5 or down by 5 …. so impressed this year!!!

I thought Neal had a very good game, despite not scoring on that great set up in the 2nd. Hopefully he gains some confidence and starts getting some goals.
Rittich should start every game until he has a bad one. No reason at all to put smith back in unless rittich begins failing or the flames have been on a 20 game streak.

Oh YES I’ve been saving this copypasta for today!
“Flames fan here, I come in peace.
Psych you thought wrong. This fanbase showed it’s true colours last night. Starting with the pre game thread praising Suter and Staal for breaking Gaudreau’s hand last year, and then calling for a witch hunt on Giordano after a simple trip.All the while denying that any of your golden god players have ever done anything wrong.
You guys need to be less bias if you want respect as a fanbase. Dumba’s hit was clean although unnecessary, Gio got beat wide and tripped Koivu to prevent a scoring chance. He didn’t target the knee like you inbreds are making up. All you guys have done over the past 24 hours is show us, and the rest of r/hockey that you’re whiny children who make up stories, whine and cry when people call you out on your bull####, and can’t take a single ounce of criticism. #### yaselves have fun being mediocre and losing in the first round.”
#### EM BOYS, AINT NO WILDFIRES HERE IN MN, LETS BEAT EM NICE AND CLEAN SO THEYLL SHUT THE HELL UP AND GO BACK TO BEING LESS RELEVANT THAN US LGW

Is this how we're gona start our saturday? By fighting on the internet?

The mods might not be awake yet either.

MPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER FOR THE GDT:
THE WILD ARE THE DIRTIEST TEAM IN THE LEAGUE
DUMBA TAUGHT MARCHAND EVERYTHING HE KNOWS
KOIVU SPENT 3 YEARS AT THE EPL SCHOOL OF DIVING
Quote:
Did anyone ask Backlund what this says about his character?
Quote:
Oh man, do you think they’re gonna go after Giordano? Lol. FSN trying to hype it up.
Quote:
How can the Wild offend the Flames fanbase today? Puck drop is next
Quote:
We hardly do. I’ve never seen a more butthurt fanbase over the Wild. The Wild are the furthest things from goons. Honestly if we weren’t a talented team I wish we had goons
Quote:
I've been consisting on a diet of tears, Sarah MacLachlen, and montages for the last week, so my sweat and flesh smell of my enemy. I have my pink carbon fiber lazy boy pulled up to the TV. My mittens without fingers to keep my internet tough guy hands at optimal performance. Let's do this.
Quote:
Brodin just purposely shot that puck at Giordano. What a ####in goon
Quote:
Calgary thinks that they're tough. They just found out that they're not. I imagine that Foligno or Seeler will difinitely show them that fact soon enough. After that the Wild should take over.
Quote:
The flames have a player dressed that is a better fighter than anyone on the Wild roster today. Dalton Prout.
Flames aren’t the toughest team but let’s not try and pretend the Wild have much in the sense of those who can play a tough game. Foligno would be the only one and wouldn’t be on the same level as Prout. Hendricks is a gamer but not a great fighter by any stretch. Dumba though doesnt fight much can hold his own with middleweights.
Early Morning Starts
Quote:
Let’s do this
Quote:
Early game is super early on the west coast.
Quote:
Who decided on a 12:30pm start time?
Quote:
This 12:30 game would be great if there was a tailgating culture (and places to do it) like baseball or football before the Wild games.
I feel like the players are always sluggish at these games.
Quote:
Wow, early one!
On the other hand, must be weird for the players and fans in the arena to have a game at noon.
Quote:
Not a fan of these early starts
Drinking coffee and watching hockey just feels weird.
Tkachuk vs Dumba
Quote:
Chicken **** Tkachuck won't even fight
Quote:
Dumba vs Tkachuk. Big name fight.
Quote:
Tkachuk sure taught Dumba a lesson by standing there and eating punches. What a ****ing moron
Quote:
FIGHT
Quote:
Not much of a fight from Tkachuk. If you're going to fight a guy for a hit at least get some punches in.
Quote:
Tkachuk goes for Dumba, think Foligno goes for Giordano? Or do they let it die with that kinda weak fight
Quote:
This thread is very much a mirror image of the game. Lots of bad blood and ribbing, some outright fights, but little to no good blows landed. Keep it up!
Gio with another Short Side Shorty
Quote:
Oi...Dumba
Quote:
Jesus christ
Quote:
Damnit
Quote:
Why didn't Dumba immediately take the other guy?!
Quote:
So do we want to be on the PP or not? The 1st one didn't work so well.
Quote:
Good job Dubs
Quote:
Are you kidding me
Gio vs Hendricks
Quote:
You know
I don’t think these guys like each other.
Quote:
Probably
Won’t be sending christmas cards to each other
Quote:
That’s a good penalty
Quote:
****ing Flamers. Go back to Canada.
Quote:
Calm and collected game between the 2 teams so far as people were predicting.
Neiderreiter,Dumba, and Suter get owned by Bennett
Quote:
Oh my ####ing god Suter actually just did that. Wow.
What in the #### is going on?
Quote:
Anyone else watching FSN hear that Flames player chirp Nino?
"#### off Niederreiter, ####in #####."
LMAO
Quote:
"#### off Niederreiter, you ####ing #####" Love the mics.
Quote:
SUTER FIGHTING?
Quote:
Wtf, Suter?? Never would have guessed he’d fight.
Quote:
why are those guys saying mean things to nino
Quote:
WTF is happening!!??
Quote:
Wow, the rare one that bad blood is showing.
Flames will take that tradeoff every time though. Not good to have Suter and Dumba fighting.
Quote:
Suter's first fight in 10 seasons according to Russo
Quote:
Guys like Bennett don't get to talk to guys like Suter and Dumba. I would expect Foligno to explain that to him. Soon
Quote:
We ain’t winning this one. We’re getting too caught up in the slugfest that Calgary wants to have because they’re ******** over a clean hit.
Quote:
Johnny Hockey vs. Spurgeon next.
Quote:
Way to end the period
PK
The Trade Off
Quote:
Dumba's missing
Quote:
Hasn't skated a shift in the 2nd
Quote:
Dumba hasn't played a shift since Bennett got him and Suter jumped to his defense for the fight with 1:33 left in the 1st
— Michael Russo
Quote:
****!
Quote:
What did Bennett do to him
all I saw was him talking smack to Dumba and then Suter pushed bennet and then they started fighting.
Quote:
Just rewatched it. Suter initiated the conflict by giving a jab with his stick hand on Bennett's back. Then they had each other in gentle hold, both with hands on the other's face. Then Bennett dropped his gloves with Suter immediately following suit.
Quote:
Hard to say what the best thing to do is. If he doesn't fight they would have gone for him in other ways. But fights have been crap ever since mandatory visors and not letting guys take of their helmets.
Chucky with the go-ahead
Quote:
Quote:
Damn it.
Eat #### Tkachuk.
Quote:
This is a time when not having Dumba really hurts.
Quote:
Jesus ####, guys, just play hockey ####
Quote:
Kunin didn't look around...was covering air
Quote:
Get Eriksson Ek off of this ****ing team. Now
Quote:
How did the puck get through that mess?
Quote:
Between Spurgeon's legs
Quote:
Holy #### are we missing Koivu’s shutdown play and Zucker’s speed out there today. We’re not playing poorly but it’d be really nice to have them right now.
Quote:
Down by 1 with Koivu, Zucker, and Dumba out. Rough.
Quote:
Koivu Dumba Zucker is just too many key pieces out. Maybe we tie it up on some crazy forecheck but things don’t look good
Quote:
They're not playing the way you need to play to score again, let alone twice
Omg he’s so Gaud
Quote:
I'm jelly that you Flames fans get to watch Johnny G for the next 15 years. Enjoy every second of it, he's amazing
Quote:
Gaudreau almost had a beautiful goal there, I wouldn't have even been mad, we got lucky there.
Quote:
Jesus Gaudreau is fast.
Quote:
Johnny can dance.

Quote:
**** the Wild are useless. Only they woukd give up a shorty to Giordano.
Quote:
I think this is the saltiest GDT I’ve seen outside of the playoffs.
Quote:
Hard game to decide... I want the Wild to get any closer in the standings... but I do want the Flames to cool down the heck down.
Quote:
Just no 3 point game
Quote:
Just watched the Tkachuk-Dumba fight. Tkachuk did more hanging on than fighting. What a vagcream.
Quote:
LOL is this a soccer game ?
I just turned it on and I’ve seen like 3 dives already .
Quote:
No koivu, Zucker and Dumba for the Wild. Flames season of fortune continues.
Quote:
Well they're the ones that delibrately injured them lol
good teams create their own fortunes /s
Quote:
I don’t know if I want Minnesota to tie this game or not LOL
Quote:
Well at least they didn't tie it up which would be worst case scenario

Rittich just cemented himself (again) as the undisputed #1 goaltender for the Flames...
Well, no. I don't believe the Flames have had an "undisputed #1 goaltender" for a number of weeks now, and I don't believe that will change with just this individual game. Rittich was great, but the Flames are almost certainly going to continue with the current rotation.
