Pretty even game for the most part. The Flames got pretty damn sloppy in the 3rd, especially late. Refs were absolutely ridiculous too.

Here are my three stars of the game.

1) Leon Draisaitl - BY FAR the best player on the ice tonight. Dynamic.
2) Kyle Platzer - Does everything well, played a stellar game tonight.
3) Mason McDonalds - Score could've been worse. Played very well.
HM) D.Nurse, P.Karnaukhov, B.Arnold, B.Christopher.

McDonald should be the first star

Yawn. Dr. Drai with 1G 1A +3 just another day at the office. The puck is always tilted when he is on the ice.

What a lame game.

These refs put other refs to shame.

Kanzig sucks, he will never be a Flame. He just has a big frame. On many of the goals against, he was to blame.

No argument from me but there's no reason to avoid making small changes at the same time as bigger ones.

I don't like it, because traditionally speaking, defensive players consisted of two types of plays: taking away the puck (finesse) or separating the body from the puck (physical).
I'm not saying I want to see defensive players hook or trip a player on a breakaway - I'm saying that the league is taking away a perfectly legal play (taking away the puck) by muddying the line with not touching the player in addition to that, when in reality the puck has already left the control of the breakaway player in question. They're accusing/penalizing the defender of making a physical play when he's made a finesse play.
