[Johnny Hoxville]

Guys I’m out of control, I had pizza, KFC chicken, fries and gravy tonight. Please start the game already.

Mother of pearl, now comes the daughters Halloween chocolate.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

The NHL has to look at these premature whistles. It is not just a problem for the Flames

I don’t enjoy premature things.

Don't you mean my wife doesn't like?

 

[SKRusty]

The fourth line has been really good tonight.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Throw that goon Bennett in the Benality Box. My fantasy team needs some pims.

 

[JPeeper]

Janko shot it like 3 feet wide.

bruh

 

[Dack]

Neal has made 3-4 really good passes so far, no one has finished yet though.

 

[SKRusty]

Yup that was the third line owning the MacKinnon line.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Don't you mean my wife doesn't like?

That would have been appropriate as well.

 

[Anglesmith]

When the opposing goalie has a .950 SV%, there are two ways to interpret that. Some might say your shots need to be really good to beat a goalie like that. Others might say you need 20 shots for every goal. The Flames clearly have applied the latter philosophy. A lot of weak shots from the outside off the rush. But these last two shifts have been great.

 

[SKRusty]

Best scoring chances have been on the third and forth line thus far.

 

[Mobiandi]

Just tuning in. We're outshooting them 13-4 so things must be going aight

Their best chances were a little higher quality than ours (basically every shift MacKinnon's line had they got a great chance), but overall we were probably more likely to score because of the amount of rubber we through to the net through traffic.

 

[SKRusty]

The Maple Laughs are back into their historical form. 2-1 loss in Dallas.

 

[SKRusty]

Thank the lord I have a mute button.... Arg my most hated part of the telecast.

They gave Oilers fans so much grief for being a 1-man team and now they can't score without Matthews. Kind of funny how it works both ways

Goes both ways, because Oilers fans would've probably been telling them that the team would be just as good without Matthews, and now that's apparently not true.

STated this elsewhere but I see shades of a Lupul situation where Matthews isn't able to stay healthy.

 

[JPeeper]

Positives = 1st line had a good shift and drew a penalty

Negatives = 2nd powerplay unit starts it and they are atrocious.

 

[Anglesmith]

Hanifin is having one of those games....


where he's awesome.

 

[Mobiandi]

Ryan with aimless passes and low-percentage shots into traffic. He shouldn't be on the PP

 

[JPeeper]

f*** off Smith.

Start Rittich please, enough of these softies.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Derek Ryan on the PP

Do not like

 

[Mobiandi]

Awful goal by Smith but again Tkachuk's gotta be better there

 

[DFF]

Is that Condon in net for the Flames?

 

[super6646]

LOL. SMITH IS USELESS
