travel_dude Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 ^^^^^^^ Interesting version of Johnny Cash's song. I'll admit I prefer the audio version of the original. But, visually, you can't beat the eye candy. Not official, but it looks like Wolfie starts. Mange and Hanley out, so Okhitiuk likely back in. I heard an odd stat about Markstrom. He hasn't played in EDM since the playoff loss. Somehow, I think the tradition continues, but odd that Wolfie would start 2 in a row. Good idea, just odd.

Played the Heritage Classic, Saturday is in Calgary but I feel it will be like a road game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travel_dude Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 Zary sits tonight. Not sure if injury or hold the kids to account. Nothing to suggest an injury, though. Uggg. Repeat of part of what last game looked like for lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, I think they need superb goaltending from Hellebuyck to have a chance against DAL or COL. I think the Jets are a good team, the Stars and Avs are elite.

Helly is a goalie that can win a game. Unfortunately, this is a team that plays better F than D. Defense wins cups, not F like Kyle Connor or C. McD. Garbage goals are what you need. Dallas to me is built for the cup final. Quick strike and a D that can kill you. They draft so well. They owned EDM last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_dude Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 In some ways this is a typical Flames game. Mistakes killing us. We survive the 5-3 only to get scored on the 5-4. 2nd goal a bad giveaway. Wolf has been very good, but he isn't quiet enough. Both goals he slid too far out. The 5 hole was the result in sliding across. I get that he's small but he stands his ground pretty darn NHL-ish. Stay quiet, cover the angles, and don't lose the net. I hope Wolfie gets the EDM game. Markie hasn't been back to Roger's since the playoffs there. That would just mess up the Oilers so much to lose to a rookie goalie. Losing to this version of the Flames. Only game I care about them winning.

travel_dude Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 Flames always seem to play WPG well. We could actually win the series. For every game like this, there is games like CHI and ANA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_dude Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 The PP has been much better with Kuzmenko and Weegar. Fast passing, less stupid passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outplayed them in the 1st and just didn't bury it. Anyway, the only game I want to win is EDM, but I would settle for the loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travel_dude Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 I can't tell by the replay how intentional it was. They would have reviewed it, so I think it's the right call. Figures that we will lose him prior to the EDM game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travel_dude Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 I don't know about the suspension now, on a different view. It looked like an attempted shoulder check that hit on the head. It could go either way, but I think they may just suspend him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably broke Pospisil's arm looking at how fast Morrissey got up but Pospisil stayed down. Pretty sure the stick took most of the impact. That said, elbow/chickenwing still came up and contact was made to the head. Skates off the ice. It could've been much worse. Morrissey could've been stretchered off.

I know it was a late game, but you would think there would already be discussion about suspensions. Have seen none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can definitely the qualities thats made him a special goaltender so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
