GDT: [Apr 17] Ploffs Game 2: Flames 1 @ Canucks 0 [TV: CBC, CNBC, TVA - 8:00 PM MT]

Holy Potter. Can this guy even skate backwards?

 

[Calculon]

Potter sucks.

Wotherspoon must practice like an Oiler given Hartleys refusal to play him.

 

[Tofveve]

It's games like the where we look like a non-playoff team. It's hard to see who our good players are. Russell, Wideman have been good . . . Jooris not too bad. Other than that?

 

[Tofveve]

Hartley Hartleying.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Yay!!!! Ramo is here

 

[tyflames]

Tough game to watch. But I think if you win one of the first 2 games on the road that's a success. We aren't in a hole even if we lose this game. Take it back to calgary and try to take control of the series.

 

[StreakingRed]

Canucks deserve this win. They were more prepared and simply the better team all night. I'll take the split coming back home.

 

[DCDM]

Resting Hiller for Sunday IMO.

 

[Oswalt1026]

Canucks must have the ********* ice for how many guys are just falling without being touched.

 

[bWo*]

We need an ovechkin on this team. Someone who can score goals, hit like a train and can't be knocked down.

 

[Calculon]

Bias to you guys. Backlund has not been an impact player for over two months now. Defense game is extremely overrated on these boards. He has been given multiple chances to prove himself contract wise and to me has not lived up. Injuries and flashes is all I see. No consistency and very soft.

Ridiculous on every level. Your expectations are completely out of whack.

Meh they got 2 lucky goals and 1 pretty good looking goal. I expected heightened urgency from the Canucks.

RAMO IN NET!

 

[Zirakzigil]

Resting Hiller for Sunday IMO.

Hiller was really bad at the start. More like giving Ramo some ice time for Sunday

Van could easily win the next 2 they play better on the road. Dumpster fire of an effort I didn't think the Flames would be this bad.

We had the legend Ariana Grande playing at the Arena yesterday....

 

[FLAMES666]

Not really, So your expectations are a 3rd line centerman slotted as our #2 scoring 30-45 pts a year?

 

[bWo*]

Jarooooome Iginlaaaaa.

Prime time iggy on this team, I think I just came

 

[Calculon]

 

[Tofveve]

If nothing else some ******* emotion! Maybe this'll wake that line up!

 

[Lunatik]

I agree with most of this, but tonight he has been one of our better forwards. Although I think that says more about how the team has played than him personally.

Resting Hiller for Sunday IMO.

Agreed. Plus it gets Ramo some work to get into better game shape in case we need him.

 

[DCDM]

Top line finally shows some emotion.

 

[Johnny GODreau]

Hank, Dank and Burrows took their time.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

We need an ovechkin on this team. Someone who can score goals, hit like a train and can't be knocked down.

So could every team!

But I agree.
