I'm pretty sure it was a bobbling Drai puck that Chaisson had to work hard to get under control, then tossed a beauty over to McDavid. He has been great on that top line, or wherever he has played in the lineup, IMO (especially for the $). And a hard no to Kronwall, and double hard no to a Kronwall-Russell pair playing higher up than a Sekera-Nurse pair (even though Nurse hasn't looked very good). Gravel has been a excellent pick-up as well, and Benning has looked much better lately. Everyone has looked much better under Hitch, to be fair.

I think they need to get more inventive. Look around for young 4-6 dmen ready to make the jump up the ladder. The biggest one to come to mind is M. Bowey out of Washington. That would look nice beside Nurse

i would think ebele is availabe......

Eberle, Barzal, and Beauvillier for Reinhart and Spooner.

No, there should not be kudo's to the crowd for chanting Luuuuu... everytime Lucic touched the puck. Remember Luongo in Vancouver? Ya, it is that bad...
(good win by you guys however)

I still think the team could look to other options than Chiasson for that line but right now I can't argue with the results.
Yup. They really need to keep looking.

Oilers fans, if that one was overturned your way, you would have been equally as livid.
Um nope. Those of us capable of objective, logical and rational thought, would realize that our player was in the blue paint, kicked the goalies pad and stepped on his skate. Those are the rules. Deal with it.

Yman my Subban.

Alright. Let me get this off of my chest so I can untwist my panties.

3rd game in 4 days, on the back half of a back to back for the Flames. I had read somewhere that the Oilers has the easiest schedule of the year butt someone also pointed out you guys have a ridiculous 18 games playing teams on their back half of a back to back. Either the NHL was feeling sorry for McDavid, or money exchanged hands somewhere and ended up in the back pocket of the schedule maker, or both. Just...wow..


Moving on. I’m a little pissed at our coach for dressing Peluso. Not only was he the scape goat for one of the WEAKEST goalie interference calls I have ever seen(!), he played a total of 2:28 in a game where our gas tanks were already mostly empty already. We could have dressed Czarnik, who is the 5th best Flame corsifor 5vs5 (Todd) and his tank was mostly full. What a (frank)ing waste.

Mikko Koivu hammed it up a bunch on his knee on knee with Gio. Still didn’t look pretty tho. We missed him. He’s definitely a top 5 D in the NHL right now. Backlund hasn’t put up the same offensive numbers so far as he did last year, but boy did it show we missed his excellent 2 way game. Lines really get messed up when he’s out, that’s for sure.

Bottom line, you played the weakest Flames team we’ve had all year, and it was a 1-1 tie. I’m glad Hitch has cleaned up your systems, especially defensively. Butt don’t get to high on your horses yet, you’ve got a long way to go. Thank God for your new goaltender, he’s pretty good. Just don’t keep hanging out to dry or he will become mortal.

Panties successfully untwisted.

Good win Oilers. See you for round 3..

Edit: Dammnit, I forgot to put in the no excuses disclaimer first, you won fair and square. You were the best madamemoisels last night. Thanks to Boner for pointing that out btw.

Ah, here are the excuses
