At some point, you may have to go to Mange-Backs-Tkachuk. Just tough to break up that top line. Safer just to put Coleman and Dube with Backs. Line might score. Anyway, I'm all over the map with lines tonight. Not too happy with anyone other than Johnny-Lindy. Tkachuk runs out of gas on the cycle. 3rd line has too many LHS's. Backlund can;t pass. 4th line is fine, as long as they are in the O-zone. Wears down the other team.

Yeah I was suggesting Jarny drop to the 4th line to help them. Not a big player, but would benefit Lucic with some passes when he's moving. Ruzie with Mange and Toffee. Toffee Bread. Dube and Coleman with Backlund. Probably has been a better line with Backlund.

Ruzie is a different player than Jarny. More offensive, more direct.

No more 5 hole? He's writing a book on that top corner. Top cheddar backhand is really nice.

Ruzie lookin' good out there.

Johnny freaking Gaudreau. 3 points so far. Hatty. Hatty. Hatty.

That chemistry has been there ever since Lindy arrived. Has to play a more responsible position now, but he knows Johnny's passes.

I think the book is out on Marky. Fluttering shots from the boards. Doesn't always see them and great chnace for a deflection.

Finally, Gaudreau finds the quiet player...

Greasy goals Tkachuk, leave the fancy stuff to the fancy boys.

Holy Hell D?

We are suffering from Backlund disease. High and wide.

Oh you missed him bobbling the tap in chance?

Dominating on shots and we seem to take odd penalties

Getting a little wide open. Stone scares me on his neutral zone and up coverage.

Reward for taking the 5v3 penalty.

Sutter doesn't like the after whistle stiff, but I think he will just talk them down a bit. If we get the extra call from the scrum, then something isn't balanced with the play. It should have been even calls, but they immediately called Gaudreau for a nothing move.

The 2 goals on 6 shots bothers me. But a 4v4 goal isn;t anything to be too concerned about. The combination penalties are not a good look, but whatever. Wideman curse lives and breathes.

Seems like the refs decided they didn't like the Flames punishing the Hollywood types. Big hits nothing. They all of a sudden they call two penalties against us after a scrum. Then decide they actually don't like close checking. I get it, Stone's was an obvious call. Not any worse than some of the stick checking earlier.

1:10 was long enough.

Stone needs to sit after that idiotic penalty.

Stupid Blockchaining penalties all started by a PP for us.

Piss poor game awareness by Stone. Will be long 5v3.

Oh my, refs going nuts.
