Hmmmm, shopping for the wife or a wife? lol

"People forget about Rantanen".....worst take ever.

Oh look, Andersson being too casual, shocking.

That was a hook on Rango, wtf...

Bingo!!

0-2, we've got 'em right where we want 'em.

Tell us Avs, what's it like to have high danger, heck, medium danger chances? We've had zero.

A step behing and losing every battle still...medatswho said it would be different.

Prophylactic?

Andersson's a terrible pt man on the PP...always does the opposite of the right play.

C'mon PP, Blockchain...

Keeping us in it. We need to get to the locker room and regroup. PP...

Vladar!!! What a nasty giveaway. Yikes.

Was that a trip on Pops?

Let's see if I'm allowed a winning streak tonight!!

Being tempted to watch a Leafs game 1st. Yuck. Guess I'll have my own tv and watch the Sting @ Saginaw...

It's nice to see speed guns used more often now with US teams. People used to be floored by slapshots >100mph. Starting to see some players pushing wrist shots past 90mph with great accuracy. They should have wrist shots in the ASG like they have slapshots. If Bedard isn't showing everyone where stick technology is at now...it's more like a slingshot. So when people really think Markstrom should have had Johnson's shot, I beg to differ. A fast release and accurately placed 80+mph, even from the high slot, is what the top kids are doing these days. Those shots are also accelerating when they leave the stick. It's getting worse for goalies. Now they're even starting to work out releases from the heels and toes of sticks. It's getting crazy. When you see Bedard and how that puck leaves like a bullet, other young players can do that almost as well. Johnson happens to be one of them. The moment I saw the open ice he had, I was thinking "aww F%^&". These guys have shot 1000 pucks/day for 10 years with ever-improving sticks. Those shots are going to become a bigger problem moving forward. Slow motion makes it look easy. It's stick to net in a very small decimal of a second. All a goalie can do is pray.lol

I have a total of around 80 points over the last 8 games from Petterson, Hughes and Meier combined.lol Can't understand why I'm falling like a rock? /s

Flames look for continued teamwork on visit to Avalanche By Field Level Media November 25, 20238:44 AM ESTUpdated 5 hours ago November 25 - The Calgary Flames and Colorado Avalanche traveled on a similar path over the past week. Both clubs had disappointing losses at Nashville and big victories at Dallas, and each won on the road on Friday night. Something will have to give when the Flames play at the Avalanche on Saturday night in Denver to complete a back-to-back set. Calgary likely is feeling good following its 7-4 win over the Stars on Friday night. The Flames scored the last five goals, four coming in the third period, to improve to 4-1-1 in their last six games. "We're a good team when we're all playing together," Flames winger Andrew Mangiapane said recently. "I like the way we've been competing. When we're working hard, that's when we're at our best. We have to do more of that." It was apparent in the win at Dallas, a game in which Calgary received a goal by seven different players. Blake Coleman scored his sixth goal of the season to forge a 4-4 tie at the 1:53 mark of the third period, and Elias Lindholm got what proved to be the game-winning goal just 29 seconds later. The Flames have scored at least four goals in four of their past five games and they need to keep their offense going in this tough stretch. Starting with Friday's game in Dallas, they will play nine of 10 games against teams with winning records, including two each against Colorado and Vegas. The Avalanche have won five of six despite having some recent adversity. They've been without top-line forward Artturi Lehkonen due to a neck injury he sustained Nov. 9 against Seattle, and he was placed on long-term injured reserve. Just as serious is the situation with defenseman Samuel Girard. The NHL and NHL Players Association announced Friday that Girard will be away from the team indefinitely while receiving care from the Player Assistance Program. Girard, through his agency, CAA, posted on Twitter that he made the proactive decision to enter the program "for severe anxiety and depression that has gone untreated for too long and led to alcohol abuse." Without Girard, who last played Nov. 18 at the Stars, Caleb Jones likely will get an extended opportunity with Colorado. He was recalled from the Colorado Eagles of the American Hockey League before a Nov. 13 win at Seattle and has played in all six games since joining the Avalanche. His time with Colorado was in jeopardy when Josh Manson returned from an upper-body injury Monday, but Jones could become a mainstay on the blue line with Girard out for the foreseeable future. Little-used Kurtis MacDermid scored his first goal of the season on Friday night. His tally at 4:56 of the third period stood up as the winner in the 3-2 victory over the Minnesota Wild. "It was kind of an out-of-body experience," MacDermid said on the TNT postgame broadcast. Valeri Nichushkin scored a goal for the sixth straight game. He now has nine goals on the season. --Field Level Media GO FLAMES GO!!

Hello you filthy, extended contract for old guy-lovin', goalie-blamin' lot, It's a GODLOVIN' GAMEDAY AGAIN!!! Our Boys visit Colorado Avalanche shrivelled Balls Arena; 8pm MST Watch live on Sportsnet West/CBC god help us for the love of all that is holy, let's stop pretending that the Avs are anything more than a 3-player team with suspect depth and G... Should we just spot teams 2 goals to start the game?

In the heat of the game we want our goalies to stop everything. It's not happening and there will be bad ones too. We just need to differentiate between, "should have had" and "bad" goal. That's where the problem lies. I 'don't think any were "bad". Every goalie would like a 2nd chance at every goal. It's like that last moment when you have an accident and, "why did I do that" screams at you. Goalies get that sensation every day.lol Russians need to train everyone else how to do interviews!!

Love it!! Seen both several times. They were teasing more, but Walking Dead got in the way for 'Murphy MacManus'.

What a game!! Dallas is the top team in the conference for my money. Excellent effort Flames, just stop feeling the need to go down 2. lol

Avs up 3-2 in Minny. Hopefully Minny gives them a hard run.
