Not much worse than apathetic linesmen.

All these former Flames are lighting the lamp for other teams - Joe Colborne with a hat trick for the Dives last night, Stempniak scores for the Canes tonight.

Correction: Rask with the goal, Lee got the apple.

Teuvo Teravainen makes it 2-0 Carolina on the PP. Gubberson with an assist

What the Faulk was that, Markstrom?

Hurricanes have been known to blow.

With a goaltending tandem as strong as Ward-Lack, they will undoubtedly blow many more.

In his defense Dorsett was on the ice at the time and he's just the kind of player that makes all of his linemates better when he's out there.

And the Canucks are 2 and 0. I know it's early but still for a team that was supposed to be worst in the league is looking pretty good.

"And while we're at it, it's also fine for Flames fans to freak out over Brian Elliott looking like a sieve,"

/sorry @dash



p.s. Down Goes Brown. DGB.

Or is it BGD (ave) backwards?

lol - Elliott needs to play better, but I also counted about 8 breakaways in the two games against the Oilers last week. That's beer league hockey defending.

Chad Johnson is scheduled to start against the Sabres Tuesday night. Looked pretty good against the Canucks on Saturday night.

It will be interesting to see if Chad Johnson gets a couple of wins for the team and then they put Elliott back in net to face his former team on HNIC on Saturday night.

Also, I should add that Elliott is having a maintenance day today (not at practice), so he may not be 100 per cent healthy.

/Likely shell shock from all those breakaways.

DGB makes reference to a sieve. BGD makes reference to a sieve. You may be on to something there.

/or maybe just on something

I'm about to go on a rant about the Oilers practicing on their mandated off day. Coaches using sprints and extra practices as punishment are just dumb. The union creates a mandatory off day because they know that coaches and management will pressure teams into practicing. McClellans comments last night indicate he's simply ignoring a CBA standard. Recovery is vastly more important in a grind of a season. Watch film. Educate.
