GDT: Flames at Hawks 5PM MTN Game Time

[Shawnofthedeadz]

Despite the defensive lapses by our team this game, I think Monahan and Gaudreau have looked really good out there.

 

[InfinityIggy]

Zero release. Doesn't even get a shot off. What's happening with him?

Bennett school of finishing? I dunno though hopefully he figures it out.

 

[Mitts]

They were in as much disbelief as we were.

Haha yeah. Well I always think back to something Peter Maher said, something to this effect, and I'm paraphrasing "It's better to assume there was a great save or goal when you are not sure, because if it was a great play, your call of it will be seen over and over, if you made a mistake and there was no great play it doesn't really matter."

In the last 10 seconds Keith high sticked our guy on the blue line, Toews hooked Monahan for 3 seconds and no calls because NHL.

 

[InfinityIggy]

So essentially always be Hox Hypin’? @Johnny Hoxville

 

[DCDM]

Hamonic!!!!

 

[Lame Lambert]

That hit on Hammer was absolute f***ing garbage. Hope he’s okay.

 

[JPeeper]

Yeah, f*** you Hawks.

Nice block from Hammer at the end.

 

[Mitts]

Hamonic clutch !

 

[InfinityIggy]

So now we have two confident goalies? Seems good. Felt like we were lucky to get the clean win in that game though.

 

[Boomstick]

Man that save by Mike Smith was insane.

Way to go boys. 2 points is huge. Keep 'em coming.

 

[Master Bill]

What the hell is wrong with Tkachuk?? Bad play after bad play, lazy and lousy passes all throughout this game and the past several games.

This team will be doomed as soon as he becomes the team's highest paid player.

 

[The Gnome]

we did not deserve to win that game, pretty bad showing. Thank christ it was the hawks. And Smith's ridiculous save.

 

[JurassicTunga]

Great game for the Flames for the most part. Smith came up big with multiple big time saves! Defense has gotta tighten up for next game.

 

[Mobiandi]

Special teams win games. Only 1 ES goal for both teams.

It was a good goaltending battle too but Smith shouldn't have had to bail us out like this. Think that's the first time this season that he's won two in a row.

2nd line needs to pick it up as well next game

 

[Dack]

Having Hathaway and Lomberg on the ice at the same time is like shooting ourselves in the foot.

Well that's a shit take if I have ever seen one.

I actually think he’s been hurt for the last 2-3 weeks.

Flames didn’t play their best game today, but good teams win games like this. Nice win boy!!

 

[Bounces R Way]

Pretty decent game from the forwards. Monahan was good. Ryan and Neal had some nice moments. I think that's the best game I've seen Mangiapane play in a Flames uniform. 2nd and 3rd pairings weren't very good other than Hamonic, not sure of Stone's status but if he's ready I could see him getting in Tuesday.

Smith looks to be back on track, that's a solid #1G performance out of him.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Also congrats to Smith, really happy for him.

 

[chunkylover53]

Why exactly is Lomberg playing?

 

[JPeeper]

Why exactly is Lomberg playing?

No one knows. I don't know why Czar is in Peters' dog house.

He won't be...

Also, pretty sure his dad wasn't happy with his performance tonight.

Save of the year?
