  1. Close game against Colorado team without their 2 best players and Calgary still lost after out playing them too...

  3. ...yeah was expecting tight Sutter style game...but like you said - a win is a win
  4. Hoping somehow get Edmonton or LA first round...don't like to play Nashville out Colorado too later...Blues later too hopefully...
  5. Easy win tonight against useless Arizona...not sure if sitting Monahan is good unless he's hurt kinda bad for morale...we'd better kill those oily olives for Saturday night Hockey Night in Canada
  6. Leading 2-0 then 3-1...only to lose 4-3...hard not to blame Markstrom...especially for the spearing penalty that seemed to be turning point...these losses especially to teams way behind us are unacceptable...
  7. Yep adding Jarnkrok is awesome and can't wait to see when both cousins get on same line...we lost Richardson to waivers though and traded for Carpenter...
  8. I hate bieber, but yeah the sweaters aren't bad...can't get myself to admit anything by bieber is good...
  9. Shouldn't have been common knowledge which team Giroux actually wanted to go to or what Giroux shortlist would have been, but very possible these secrets get sold by spies to the highest bidders - or simply Florida GM knows that his team is where players want to go if they want to win a Cup. That's also what Friedman reported
  10. Florida is the team Tampa Bay was last year...just ****** stacked
  11. Elliott Freidman reported that Giroux wouldn't go anywhere else but Florida, so I doubt Fletcher could've gotten anything more out of Florida...doesn't change fact that Fletcher still to blame for the Flyers being bad though...
  12. Weak fight...Maroon must have been scared to do anything else but hang on...for such a big guy Maroon doesn't win much against heavyweights - but he's won 3 Cups in a row now he's probably there for good luck to try and keep that streak alive
  13. Calgary dominated entire game not just first period, I like the new lines too especially on the road where we don't have last change, maybe the lines will go back to normal for home games - I'm really interested to see Lindholm and Jarnkrok play on same like one day, maybe try them on a power play line or on penalty kill.
  14. Totally...was thinking Markstrom would get a shutout...he'll bounce back next game though...
  15. Like todays trade too for Lindholm cousin haha
  16. Another win, but Markstrom let in some weak goals tonight...first one especially...
  17. ...I think it was more Vladar playing solid that kept them in the game than Calgary playing solid as a whole, Calgary wasn't horrible of course but they gave up too many chances and if it wasn't for Vladar game would have been out of reach earlier - Calgary had no luck of course like you said and Kemper had all the luck in net for Colorado. Another thing I always notice in today's NHL compared to the 80s and 90s is always pulling the goalie whether before face offs or just whether the team has possession such as possession deep in the defensive zone - I'll never understand it, yeah you want the tying goal, but you equally don't want to give up anyone goals too, I don't see why they can't spare the few more second to see if you can control the offensive zone first with possession before pulling goalie...like if on power play of course you want to set up and control the play and only then when you control the play in offensive zone should the goalie be pulled...
  18. What a depressing loss getting shutout...of all the possibilities I didn't think that would happen...
  19. League leading 9th shutout for Markstrom should put him in lead for Vezina
  20. There's The Sutter Boys we all know and love playing good Sutter defence
  21. Man...up 2-0 and playing good defensive coverage up to then, not sure what the **** happened for Calgary to start missing defensive zone coverage assignments for the rest of the game...the empty net goal was very disappointing too because I've always noticed that Calgary, not only with Sutter but seems over last 20 years, they always pull goalie well before they establish offensive zone control - which frequently results in giving up easy empty net goals...just wish they'd take the time to establish control in the offensive zone first before pulling goalie, even if it means losing valuable minutes without the extra man it's useless if you give up empty net goals, and it's unlikely to get a goal without offensive zone control anyways so might as well establish that first before pulling goalie. Very very disappointing loss...
