3am? Ain't nobody got time for that.
Flames at home is an automatic win especially with the Wolf starting. Time to dump all my life savings into the win, jokes on the bookie as my life savings is all debt.
Better that than investing it in Hwak Tuah Coin or whatever it is.
That's why I am in debt though. Madoff sold me on the coin taking off to the moon.
That would imply we actually have good wingers to play with Zary, which we don't. Our best winger, Coronato, is playing with Backlund which I think is the decision all Flames fans want (and he's succeeding with Backs so keep him there).
Also, how is this roster in the top 10 of league standings? It's easily as bad as San Jose, Chicago or Montreals.
Let's give St. Louis the blues tonight. Send them home unhappy.
Go Flames Go.
I fairness we're a loss away from being in the bottom 10. Probably. Er something.
And already my actual TV channel is intermittently freezing
I totally forgot to get my first goal picks what with making fine dinner cuisine tonight. You'll thank me later when my diarrhea pulls me away and we score.
Go Flams win gam!
3-1 Flams because we don't do more than 3
Nice plays from pelts
And why are we sitting Zary. Stupid. Bennett treatment indeed.
Edit- Zary's playing
Maybe sick? Wolf technically has something too I think.
Man, it's a bakery tonight.
Hes playing.
At centre no less
I was just about to say I thought I saw him on a shift. Lol
We look poised (so far).
I was going by the pregame lineup predictions I guess - dumb me
Pp do something goobers
Anyone see the mustache behind the blues bench wearing 76?
Him vs Coronato, who wins?
My SN1 channel is freezing. Anyone else having this issue? Hope it's not my needing a new TV
Must be my TV crapping out

Our PK is rubbish.
Getting pulled away for bit and swe they scored sigh
So we aren't scoring many against this goalie. He is .94 in his last 4 and looks red hot.
Scoring woes continue...
Attaboy Pelts!
Pelts!!!!!
Happy for Pelts
That Zary line would be pushed around too much. They have him with Coleman and Duehr because they can open up space for him. I'd prefer Pelts being higher in the lineup too, but it makes sense to get Zary more space. If Pelts can show he's really back and not shy away from contact, I think he will get moved up and swapped with Duehr.
How about bumping Pelts up with Kadri and Huberdeau?
Rooney is garbage. We are not winning with him anytime soon. Very limited AHL journey man. Not gonna go into his stats, they are not worth it.
Missed last game and just caught this one. Glad to see Pelletier back!
Way to go Scoronato, that's exactly what we need in this lineup. Nice to see the youth chipping in.
Feeling beat up with this stupid tooth extraction, so just kind of loafing around tonight. Just got up to drink a Boost, thought I'd check in.
Wicked shot
Coronato is good
Offsetting penalties for hugging.
I don't think I've ever seen 2 guys interfering with each other at the same time like that before
I really appreciate how Ryan Leslie is seen as one of the guys in the locker room.
I'm more stunned that as someone who wears a tie for a living how he hasn't figured out how to tie one.
Yuck.... Another poorly timed penalty. Not a PP goal but close enough.
Quality bounce.
Kadri supports the tank.
Of course, Pospi and Kadri with quality penalty killers...

Trapezoid penalty? I get we get the PP, but I wish they'd get rid of the Trapezoid rule.
Gorgeous forecheck by Hube.
Weegar!
Its a rule for exactly that reason. Limits the goalies ability to kill plays and increases offense.
Always love to see Huberdeau and Weegar connect on a goal.
Booooom
I mean, that's not so bad when you take into consideration Eric Francis' mom still dresses him.
I guess so, but I feel like things have changed enough that it's basically unnecessary now. I'd like to see how the game changes with it removed.
If the league wants to increase offence, they should remove the red line rule so that goalies can get in on the rush too.
I wanna see a rugby type scrum in the corner with a goalie involved.
Idk why I keep thinking Zary and Bean look like they could be cousins or something.
Dress them in smaller pads and bring back the rover position.
Lots of dog piles in front of the blues net lately
Whoa Julien is an AC for the blues? Didn't know that.
Oo nifty pass pelts.
Pelts has looked solid this call-up. I don't think he's going back down.
I'd be excited if he gets an extended look.
Aww hubes. Dang.
Hube has looked good this game
Huberdeau and Kadri have looked excellent this game.
Also Kadri deked the hell out of that guy, nice pass too.
Mackenzie Weegar has been pure comedy tonight.
Weegar really blew a tire.
On to OT
I get to see OT!!!
Quick whistle sheesh

Corona-ohhh again!!
Backs straight into the crest
Second attempt valid?
f*** off that's all it took was a drive to the net through butter D
Good goal
That's a goal come on now, he wacked the puck which was free in the crease.
Exactly
f*** the Blues forever. Such a boring ass team
Yeah I'm thinking the same. But I can see why video guy is giving it a shot.
Seriously obviously a goal what is this bubblewrap hockey ?
Rango push doesn't help.
It'll be a goal.
Interesting that last angle
Imagine this being a SC final lol
Sucks to lose but it was a good effort.
Call on ice stands
If they called that off id be a little embarrassed
Flaky Dan in net, another 4 goals against, no surprise here.
I can see why Vladar was mad. He didn't see the replays. But replay I'd say Rango pushed more than Parayko. Makes it an easy call.
I've never gotten over the Coleman disallowed goal vs the Oilers in the playoffs so that call really misses me off
Folks, pay attention to key FOs, we are absolutely garbage at these. How many key FO have we won in OT? Really the story of the season..
I saw Coronato win the one earlier in our end but don't remember the one before the goal
Yah but I didn't really see one against him where I thought he should have had it.
neener
We want to send Montreal a 20s pick!
I thought Vladar made the save, the puck was in the air and still not over the line then Parayko pushed his pad hard into the net which then allowed the puck to go in as Vladars pad was no longer on the line to keep the puck out. So no goal

FWIW the video guy had nothing to do with it. Last minute and OT the reviews are automatic. I think the NHL switched to that after one season of coach's challenge because they realized that the situation makes the penalty meaningless anyway, so why wouldn't a coach just challenge every goal against?
To be honest, everyone on here is a lot more chill than I was expecting. That is basically on the borderline, because if you're saying that you can hit the puck and then follow-through through the goalie in one motion, that opens a bit of a can of worms. The fact remains that if not for the push, Vladar saves that puck. It only goes in because the pad is physically moved by the player. There are plenty of calls made to disallow goals under that same exact argument.
On the other hand, this is much less egregious than the interference on Hellebuyck recently, so it's not out of line with at least some other recent calls. Vladar basically had no ability to hold his leg given his positioning, and Parayko made no specific motion to go for the pad; it was just a follow-through on a valid shot.
Just got home from the Dome. Really hit all the classic Flames game marks for me
were the better team but lost
lost on a bullshit call
3 goals or less
Liked the Hubes-Kadri duo again. Callups were both good. Rooney sucks. Nice to see some chemistry between Coronato and Zary. Zary again really quality center play.
If they could figure out how to not enter the first intermission down they might be a good team. Gotta say the Saddledome was looking kinda empty.
