Lets see some consistency please... no more good game, bad game. Play a solid 60 minutes and there's a really good chance they're moving on.

An elimination game where the Flames have the upper hand? What world is this?

If the Flames win this game, Johnny Gaudreau will have won a series with the Flames in two years (2015, 2020).

Jarome Iginla only won a series with Calgary in one (2004).

Isn't that weird.

Iginla won three playoff series in his career. That's criminal.

Iginla played for teams other than Calgary? Funny, I have no idea what you're talking about.

The optimist in me expects another 6-2 domination. The pessimist expects a bunch of bad luck and penalties leading to a flukey triple OT loss.

Go Flames Go!!! Just win please I don’t care how.

Great graphics in the OP

We have the momentum and cannot let this slip to game 5. This is the chance to prove this team isn't inconsistent and mentally fragile.

Skate hard. Give AF. Prove yourselves.

Go Flames Go!

Would be nice to take away the series before Shief and Laine get back.

4--3 Flames in OT

They really need to finish the Jets off tonight. Credit to the Jets for playing hard but they weren't a very good team before all the injuries and with the injuries look like an expansion team. Have to take care of business as it's hard to imagine the Flames being able to beat the Blues if they are having difficulty with a mediocre Jets team.

Is it confirmed that Scheif and Laine will be missing tonight's game? On the Fan 960 last night they were saying it was a possibility that they could return for game 4.

In each of our wins so far, I have listened to Navras before gametime. Thanks CP! I'll keep the tradition going.

I expect the Jets to start hard and fast, get the early lead, there's probably going to be at least a couple of early penalties, then Flames get into the game and possibly grab the lead, and then the game is really settled in the third if the Flames didn't put things away in the second.

Either way I think the Flames will be at least superficially the better team for most of the game, but if the Jets defend well as they did on the 2nd game and Hellebuyck doesn't have any more gaffes, it'll be a game of bounces.

I like our chances if the game is open much more than if its another physical grind. While the Flames can grind, they're usually not that good at converting that grind into goals. Forecheck and quick transitions are key, the Jets are well coached as a group, but their defense aren't individually that skilled, so I think chaos favors us a lot more than them.
