Series Thread: Rocky Mountain Series - Flames vs. Avalanche

[Bloody Brian Burke]

On another note, how can a GM be so good at making trades and so terrible at free agent signings?!?

Most free agent signings are bad.

108 Shots against in the last two games. Seems insane for that D corps on Calgary.

Offensive zone time for Colorado clearly shows how dominant they have been through the first four games.

I believe linesmen can call high sticking penalties...Staring right at him.

Clear as day.

However Valamaki has to watch out. Refs like calling those retaliatory penalties and that was a blatant call on cross check to Calvert neck after.

Makar is a damn stud ... and the Avs will be probably staring right at Bowen Byram with the #4 pick in the draft ... FUCK!

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

So have we ever had the 8 seeds upset the 1 seed in both conferences in the same play- offs? The Flames are looking pretty pathetic giving up all thos chances. I feel bad for the goalkeeper when he is playing so hard and the D in front of him is being steam rolled.

I'm sorry NBCSN, Mike Smith was a star in this game.

I have to agree with you.How Smith allowed that game to even reach OT is beyond me.

Would make for some good hockey games against Vancouver for the foreseeable future

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Was just looking at 5v5 scoring chance data for all the series. No other series is as lopsided as this one ... 106 avs v 76 for the flames

Hope I'm wrong, but I see the Canadian team sacking up and winning tonight.

Go Avalanche!

We've had plenty of Gaudreau sightings, unfortunately 95% of them have been bad.

 

[wingsauce7]

Not the Flamers I expected so far.

 

[wingsauce7]

Another turnover. Avs goal!

 

[naslundfan19]

The Flames do realize their season is on the line, right?

 

[naslundfan19]

This is huge.

 

[naslundfan19]

Johnny, why so slow?
