Best part is watching this team win with its backup in net and surviving the third period on the road. Good sign.

Had a thought while watching the Flames turtle away the 3rd so I checked out some numbers

When leading, the Flames only have a 43% goals for percentage, indicating that they usually lose leads rather than extend them. The good teams in the league hover between 53% and 60% goals for while leading. 43% is good for 26th in the league.

The Flames need to work on closing out leads because they are too good of a team to be this bad. They're 5th league wide in goals for percentage while tied and 10th when trailing.

I wouldn’t be too hard on the team.

They did just enough to make sure Monahan got the gwg.

Another good road game. Good to see Rittich continuing to play solid.

A lot of negativity again about the 3rd period. It was mentioned on the broadcast the team didn't get in until after 4am the day prior and didn't practice as planned. That, and there's a ton of parity in this league. A stat said the Devils were 9-3 at home as of late. They were down, got a power play goal and made a hard push. It's not the slight on the Flames some are making it.

Just as there's been a lot of doom and gloom in January despite us playing at a 0.750 win percentage since after Christmas.

No teams are going to dominate start to finish and run .900. The expectations and what it will take to satisfy some fans is grueling to read.

This was a fun and exciting game to watch and glad to see we got the win. This team has really put it together over the last eight weeks in terms of tightening things up and playing solid defense. Hamonic and Brodie have quietly rebounded nicely from a slow start to the year and the entire team looks on the same page.

If they can fix the power play and add or get some secondary scoring from within, this team could be scary down the stretch and into the playoffs.

Watched Gulutzan's post game comments. He didn't like that they sat back in third and will address it. He said he played some guys more in the third to get some push back.

It was good to see Backlund's line step up in that regard. It was a great road win but you can't sit back and let the opponent come at you.

Hopefully Gulutzan can get his message across and they are in the same position many more times but push hard and play in the opponent's end more.

Rittich. How good is it to have a dependable back up.

Anyway happy to see a win, that 3rd period though .. Glad Rittich got another win too.
Keep 'er rollin boys!!
I had this problem as well, on the bottom left hand corner of the page select CP Style 2 instead of CP Style 2A and the tweets show up.

Flames 3 Devils 2

- Solid two periods followed by a shaky third
- Monahan scores two
- Gaudreau puts on a show at home
- Rittich continues to prove he's the deal
