Mantha first career hattrick

then Taro Hirose scores his first NHL goal 8 seconds later

 

[Slasher45]

Still trying to find the DeBrusk interference call...

 

[Rubi]

Goalie masks have been flying off all season long, I don't know what it is, or if it's just purely strategy, but yes, the league needs to look into it.

The league should make goalie masks have chin straps like regular helmets do.

 

[Rubi]

Flames out shoot the Sharks 25-9 after two periods. Sharks are looking terrible. A lot people are getting on Dell's back but he's made a lot of good saves so far.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

You do realize if the flames win they clinch conference and the only team that could have pulled ahead was the Sharks, right?
I think this game meant a lot to both teams.

Even if the Flames were to lose this one they would win 1 of their last 3.

 

[Kybb79]

7 Sharks sog at nearly the midway point.
Not a great effort today.

No surprise at this point in the season they're an older team.

It's in the bag for the Flames.
The Sharks came out of the gate and shot their wad.
They've look like a team trying to get through a game

Realistically, the Sharks knew they didn't have a chance already. They'd have to win out and the Flames would have to lose out for it to happen. The likelihood of the Flames not winning one of the next 3 even if they would lose tonight and the Sharks winning 4 straight was never very likely. Especially with the Flames schedule and having the Sharks on the 2nd of the back-to-back tonight.

 

[Rubi]

Even if the Flames were to lose this one they would win 1 of their last 3.

I'm sure the Flames really want to wrap it up this game so they can rest a few of their key players for a couple of games.

 

[Groo]

Agreed. Especially with how ad this game is getting out of hand, would have been nice to watch Bennett flatten a few Sharks players before the post season

Okay but, only if they don't see it coming
Perhaps our teams will be seeing one another soon.

 

[X8oD]

Still trying to find the DeBrusk interference call...

Likely the refs saw what Marchand did, and executed the classic "make up call"

 

[tarapoto2006]

Well, we haven't even played our best period yet.

 

[WingsMJN2965]

Mantha is literally the second coming of Johan Franzen. Some nights you wouldn't even know he's there. Others, you'd think he played a full 60.

Tonight is one of those full 60 nights.

 

[Kybb79]

Gio should win the Norris. Is Burns playing tonight?

 

[tarapoto2006]

Gio should win the Norris. Is Burns playing tonight?

Well, he's been on the ice...

 

[CgyFlamesftw]

Gio should win the Norris. Is Burns playing tonight?

Probably close to guaranteed Gio will win.

 

[WingsMJN2965]

Well, he's been on the ice...

Drew Doughty likes this.

 

[devbouz12]

Well, he's been on the ice...

Pretty sure he means Burns is invisible tonight.

 

[Rubi]

Well, we haven't even played our best period yet.

I'm hoping the score remains 4-1. When the score gets too out of hand bad things tend to happen, especially if the losing team has a lot of pride. I'm good with 4-1.

The Flames don't need any more injuries... especially when the losing team feels the need to "send a message".

 

[tarapoto2006]

Pretty sure that's what I meant too...

Yup, lock it down, no need to run a score or take risks, lock it down and get out healthy

 

[tarapoto2006]

Yup, lock it down, no need to run a score or take risks, lock it down and get out healthy

I think the Flames will add at least one more

 

[devbouz12]

Pretty sure that's what I meant too...

10-4 didn't catch that.

 

[WingsMJN2965]

Hronek is pretty damn good.

When Cholo comes back, can't help but think Detroit won that Chychrun for Cholo/Hronek pick trade.

 

[devbouz12]

Bruins are frustrating af to watch the last couple games.
