I totally agree with Eric Francis on the goalie change. He nailed it.

He said it was a bad mistake and potentially a disastrous (turning point for the season)....decision.

Basically, Peters needed to show more faith in him. First goal was soft, but he did the right thing to come out and play puck on second (showing confidence)...but made mistake to play it up middle. He needed to let Rittich redeem himself, and play through it.

I agree. And Smith....first shot. Again.

Wish Rittich started second.

I was just thinking that hockey players would make great fighter pilots...amazing situational awareness, split second decision making, great hands and feet...the skill levels of these guys is scary!

Just rambling, but really.....killer instinct too....

But back to the game. Flames really need one this period, or two...just to set the stage for the third.

Welll.....Smith has made a few good saves, and he made the first one there...but *********!!!!!

Down 4-1 is a hill to climb in the third.

That was my prayer too...but no. Good pressure all that period, just not much to show for it. They are going to need a wicked good third to pull out a win.

They can though.

But on the bright side, the oilers broke their losing streak and beat the Wild 4-1.

Yay.

Yup great effort, should have come out of the second with a couple more goals.
Had some incredible chances.

Nice screen from Neal on that last goal. To bad Kane popped that 4th goal. Well we are a third period team so let's kill em in the third.

Shots 35-25 Flames, and so many fantastic 'almost' goals...frustrating to say the least.

Johnny whiffs just speaks volumes on the whole night. He doesn't miss that any other night.
