Well, that was not good. Series isn't over, but the Flames need some kind of response in game 4.

I didn't watch it Dash. Where was the main weakness for the flames? Speed? Goaltending?

Smith was fine (he made 50 saves), the Flames are just being outworked, out-skated and out-battled. The top line of the Flames has been terrible, I think Peters needs to get the blender out and change up the line combos. It's not good when Sam Bennett is your best forward through the first three games of the series.

Yeah. Giving up 56 shots in this era is a disgrace. Sure can't blame the goalie when the Avs were basically doing whatever they please. Hell they had 40 shots by the end of the 2nd. Terrible effort imo

OK Flames, you’re Spokane’s last hope for the Cup this season.

Step 1 is to show up on time and try to get a lead.

They can't be much worse than they were in game 3.

/I hope.

Go Spokane Flames!

I can't wait until Brodie is traded in the off-season.

On the plus side, Valamaki looks good tonight.

 

[naslundfan19]

That could’ve been bad.

And why no penalty?

 

[naslundfan19]

I guess they said he just lost an edge? I don’t know why not either.

 

[wingsauce7]

6 full skaters..

There’s your lead.

He's a sieve.
