Battle of Alberta - Game 1 GNT

[dash]

Well, that's a good start to this period (come on Iggy, hit the net)

Ooh, Hall close there.

 

[dash]

That was an great 20 seconds from JayBo and Jokinen

Hemsky enters the Regehr tunnel of death...

Someone needs to tell Hall that falling into the net does not count as a goal.

Not even an imaginary goal?:p

That's a good trade for the Flames, Peckham's having a good game for the Oil tonight...

Sure Hall can add it to his total.


Another good tussle.

 

[Destroydacre]

No love lost between these teams.

Down goes Fraser (lol)...Sutter does a fine job.

 

[naslundfan19]

So, these guys must be rivals or something?

 

[puckhead]

big hit by Smid




and another nice tilt.
I like watching these to play each other.

 

[dash]

The Bulin wall is looking very good tonight (Damn him)

 

[dash]

Jesus tap dancing Christ, Jokinen and JayBo again...

 

[naslundfan19]

2 nice stops from Kipper earlier

could be wanting to get his wins in before he heads to prison.

anyone else a bit worried that the Oilers get on a bit of a roll, ala Colorado last year?
lots of young guys, no expectations, worst thing that can happen is they wina couple and start having fun.
I often kid that they will be brutal, but they do have some talent.

Maybe, Colorado last year had more talent than Edmonton does this year though, IMO. I don't think it's gonna happen.

Nice bounce back period for the Flames. Kippers and Bulin are both on their A game tonight.

 

[dash]

In my opinion, the Oilers had a good first period due to the Flames inability to stay out of the penalty box. We saw what happened five-on-five during the 2nd period. That said, the kids are looking good, but they better keep their heads on a swivel.

True, but you could also make a case that the reason Calgary took so many penalties in the first was because of the Oilers using their speed and catching them flat footed.
