Get Shore on the third line and Lazar in for Hathaway. Losing tonight is pretty much the final nail in the coffin

edit:rofl

 

[Janks]

I thought Shore played well last game, not happy he's out

It could actually be him on the 4th line. Wills has Lazar there in his tweet but Gilberston had Shore there in his tweet. I guess we'll know for sure in the pregame skate

Edit: nvm Gilberston corrected his tweet it is lazar in for shore

I'm expecting a loss.

And yet, somehow I know I'll still be disappointed by the outcome.

Do or die.
A loss here has us way too far back.

 

[DCDM]

A game against the two-time defending Cup champs? This will surely fix all our problems.

 

[InfinityIggy]

We will win tonight's game. Or my name isn't Johnny Hoxville.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

The first of about twelve must-win games if we want ploffs.

 

[Kanye]

Flames win 6-3

 

[Baxterman]

At least no more Glass, but still Stajan and Brouwer while Shore sits. Babysteps I guess but at this point it is beyond comprehension how those two get so much rope with such terrible play.

I will still hold out hope and say this is a big game but it is seemingly getting close to saying while mathematically possible, realistically the team is done.

 

[Turning Mangiapanese]

At least we should be seeing an increasingly desperate bunch of hockey players, right? No reason for anyone to mail it in, right?

Generally agree, but they'll be in much better shape if they can go 2 for 3 on this road trip, and win the four remaining games against the California teams.

I think we'll know where they sit after Friday's game.

 

[Tofveve]

First line has to live up to their potential for the rest of our games and ploffs. Time for a world-beater stretch run.

Insert Vince Carter post dunk quote here.

 

[Skobel24]

Flames are gonna get slaughtered tonight. 8-2 Penguins, 4 goals in the first.

Make it more embarrassing. 8-4 Pens but the Flames score 4 in the first.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Positives:

-their rookie goalie has an even worse GAA than Gillies
-Ferland in Stewart out
-???

 

[MDCSL]

Look at how many games against teams we are competing with that are coming up, this game is important but the last stretch of like 10 games against pacific teams will make or break us

 

[Dack]

Why is Hathaway unscratchable? I don't think he deserves an everyday spot on account of him being bad and all.

 

[Mr Snrub]

I think we win this one. Ferdaddy's home and wants to put the team on his back. He scores two, top line has a big night.

That being said, we're still not making the playoffs.

 

[FlamerForLife]

**** off

 

[MDCSL]

Gillies gives up a bad first goal again
