Best 20 minutes of Flames hockey likely this season. Amazing what happens when you put guys together with other guys who have had success in the past.

Elliotte just mentioned during the 2nd period intermission that the Canucks and Ducks continue to discuss a trade involving Virtanen.

Gio nails Connor Brown along the boards and then tells him to "Hit the Gym" lol

“Tackling fuel” - Laine, probably

At least Campbell’s back today against Edmonton. It was giving me the shakes thinking about what Drai & McDavid would do to Hutchinson.

Still not sure how Ceci’s play was a penalty but the Isles capitalized on it.

Oh yay, McDavid with no points in the first period, yet HNIC gushes all over him during 1st period intermission.

 

[wings-pens2166]

wow, bang bang and just like that Pens tie it up at 2 very quickly.

Well for years it was Crosby and even for me that got annoying.

Yeah amazingly Letang hit the net!

And they should have Crosby shoot more on the PP. That play actually worked.

PO Joseph is such a breath of fresh air to watch. it was a subtle little play, but instead of just falling back, falling back in the D zone, he stepped up and challenged the guy just inside the blue line and it lead to a turnover and chance the other way

 

[thedddd]

Nice to see Angello back. Drew O’Jesus was not good.

lol - Spezza dekes Smith out of his jock and the Buds lead 3-zip

Moving him off a pairing with Letang seems to be a smart move.

while certainly true, you could say that for anyone paired with Letang, lol

Yep Letang looked “good” <sarcasm> on that Isles goal.

It happens way too often that it isn’t a coincidence.
