That one was bad/on Smith
Great callGibson looks fairly bad. If Flames can get some pressure and start playing some damn hockey, we should be able to slaughter the Islanders.
A saved tip. Eberle could have ordered lunch how long he had alone with Smithy.
Putting the rebound in the slot, taking himself 5 feet out of position. Monahan may have misplayed that, but Smith was bad on that goal.
And lol @ hating on Monahan's defensive game for 1 gaff, when he makes 100 nice defensive plays that all get ignored.
I hate "Hometown Hockey". I just had to get that off my chest.
I tire of Mr Personality and his roadie wife.

It's so cliche and by the end of it I can't stand kids.
Watch him. Realize he's actually a really weak defensive player.
When he's not scoring, it's ultra apparent too.
For some reason, we like to think he's a great defensive player; because he's this good ol' big, boring, slow, Canadian centre and was constantly compared to Toews when he was drafted... He's actually really bad defensively. Like, bad. There's a reason when we're protecting a lead, he's generally not on the ice unless they've bled Backlund dry. Hell, we've seen Bennett's line out there even instead.
Smith is even making easy saves look extremely difficult
