RISING

That one was bad/on Smith

A saved tip. Eberle could have ordered lunch how long he had alone with Smithy.

 

[Reijo29]

Gibson looks fairly bad. If Flames can get some pressure and start playing some damn hockey, we should be able to slaughter the Islanders.

Great call

Putting the rebound in the slot, taking himself 5 feet out of position. Monahan may have misplayed that, but Smith was bad on that goal.

And lol @ hating on Monahan's defensive game for 1 gaff, when he makes 100 nice defensive plays that all get ignored.

PP!

 

[DCDM]

This literally hurts to watch

 

[Mr Snrub]

Pretty hard to score on the PP when you spend the first 1:20 getting set up

Watch him. Realize he's actually a really weak defensive player.

When he's not scoring, it's ultra apparent too.

For some reason, we like to think he's a great defensive player; because he's this good ol' big, boring, slow, Canadian centre and was constantly compared to Toews when he was drafted... He's actually really bad defensively. Like, bad. There's a reason when we're protecting a lead, he's generally not on the ice unless they've bled Backlund dry. Hell, we've seen Bennett's line out there even instead.

this is one of those nights huh.

 

[Mr Snrub]

Stone and Brouwer on the 2nd PP, Brouwer takes the faceoff against Tavares

f*** off Gulutzan

I hate "Hometown Hockey". I just had to get that off my chest.

 

[FlamerForLife]

Another pp where we generate jacksh*t

 

[Tofveve]

We didn't score on that pp.

I tire of Mr Personality and his roadie wife.

 

[Mobiandi]

Unpopular opinion: Tkachuk has been very ineffectual in the past 5 games

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

It's so cliche and by the end of it I can't stand kids.

 

[Volica]

Tkachuk and Gaudreau being played together.

I just hate hockey, I don't care where it's played

 

[FerklundCGY]

Smith is even making easy saves look extremely difficult

I agree. Disengenous to us jaded folk lol.

Sorry but this is a bad take. Rather than arguing for too many posts I'll just say agree to disagree because there is no point in arguing.

He looks like Gillies out there, lol

 

[Turning Mangiapanese]

Well the effort's certainly there right now. They'll take this one home in the end.
