That last no penalty call was obviously bad, but they werent executing worth a darn tonight... crappy passing/receiving and missed shots, and I didnt see a lot of heart tonight either. They can and have played a lot better this year.

Other than first goal which I thought was a stinker, Smith really pulled his weight. Second goal was totally bad D, leaving man open like that with your back to him!

And I also think the team played less than stellar...the penalty shot kind of mirrored the whole game. Not great. Back to back game, but still not much focus and desire.

I have no idea how the delay of game wasn't called, but there were at least a dozen non calls I saw...was pretty egregious, but that's hockey. Maybe the Wideman Affect still happens...?

Who plays a losing goalie? A losing team. Buddy gets a shutout and then sits for a division rival. Kinda sad really....

The fact Smith was in net was probably enough to lower the tempo tonight. Peters has to see the team doesn't have Smiths back. This has to change.

I think the team would have played harder with Rittich in net...they were probably as bummed at Smith getting the nod as we were.

Peters is an idiot. Or Smith has compromising pictures of him and Brad with farm animals.

Smith 5-6-1, Rittich 5-1...what is the confusion? Basic Math!!

Again so deep in his net, allows first goal. Teams must just drool when they see him listed as the starter. Also where is our offence? Feel free to score some goals to compensate. I agree Smith is struggling but we can't win jack if we don't score. So frustrating.

Rittich has better numbers in every category, except starts and SO, I believe. Defies logic.

You shut it about losing tonight Bessie, we need this one bad! Was nice to see the Knuckleheads get soundly whipped by the Wild, we can jump a couple spots with a win here.

Then we can discuss BOA ....

I'll go a bottle on the game Bessie, should be a good one. For Flames.

Anyone else ever get tired of watching Johnny when he circles aggressively instead of actually battling for puck on boards....i get it, he's small and has glass hands, but fer Chrissakes he could battle a bit, no??!

Yep. For the Flames and me too.

On a side note, I was given a pair of tickets for the Oilers vs LA on the 29th....think I will give them to my son and his friend.

We are so passing you chumps by this weekend.

Sunday morning will roll around and little Jonny and Seanie will still be in the corners whimpering and silent crying little boy tears after the Mighty Oil thrashes them.

And Smith can't drop his Ensure meal replacement fast enough to get in position to stop a muffin shot.....

Jesus wept. And we get a penalty for unsportsmanlike on top of it. Gawd.

If Peters starts Smith Saturday I'm going to burn some jerseys. Really. This game was a win all the way, except for Smith letting in two big fat soft muffins.

If the Flames plane crashes in the Andes, they eat Smith first. Guaranteed.

I can't believe the idiot commentators were yakking about starting smith For Sure on Saturday.

Ughhhhhh!!!!!!!
