Flames throw up a stinker, lose to the Leafs 6-2.
Well that sucked. Freddy Andersen was really good tonight, Rittich was definitely not good on Ennis’ third goal and would’ve been nice if he could’ve gotten a save on his first. Other than that, I don’t think he had a particularly terrible game. I hope Peters gives him a chance to work out of his funk, lord knows he’s given Smith plenty of rope to do the same. The kicked in goal was coin flip, to me it looked like a kicking motion but whatever. I really miss having a top line that could almost score at will, all three guys have been fighting it lately and they really need to step it up heading into the home stretch and playoffs. Anyways, to think the team wouldn’t have a crap game for the rest of the season is unrealistic and the team is still 7-2-1 in their last 10. Burn the tape, have a good hard practice and regroup for the back to back this week. Also refs tonight:

Pretty frustrating game. Rittich has to be better, but I think that might be his low point for the season. Still think he can be trusted.
Won't be really worried unless they throw the Vegas game too, but I'm gonna say they win that one with authority.

Meh. Saw zero heart from the flames once the bounces weren’t going their way. They didn’t come back out for the last 40

Disappointing result but I don't think one we should panic about. The Flames didn't play poorly, just every bounce went against them. That's not to say many of those players weren't their own fault, but it felt like just one of those games where you knew everything was going against them.

Wish we traded for Andersen when we had the chance.

I don’t even mind the Leafs, but there is nothing I hate more than hearing fans of the opposing team totally take over the Dome.
Well, except losing to Edmonton. I hate that more. But the opposing fans thing drives me nuts.

Bad breaks and poor goal tending
Flames overall were decent, one of those nights

That was a game where it just wasn't the Flames night. They can't finish opportunities, and lots of breaks for the opposing team.
Goaltending wasn't the reason the team lost, but the past two games doesn't inspire confidence. It's a weakness for sure.

Pathetic effort. Rittich was garbage, but so was most of the team. Backlund was poo, as was his entire line. Brodie was horrible and I’d be fine trading him at the draft.
I look forward to watching the Laffs get eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.

Considering the Ducks wanted the 6th pick, I thank my lucky stars every day that we didn't do that trade.

Pretty disgusting all the so called “fans” that sold their season tickets to fill the rink with opposing fans.
