I hope, there is not some kind of trade involving Brody. Timing seems a bit strange.

Well, flames have two wins and a combined 13-2 goal advantage so far against AZ....lets see what they can add to that.

Go Flames!!

Gio's shot tipped and up 1-0 early! Whoooop!

I think Ryan got it...

What's going on with Brody?

Picked him in the pool so it kinda sucks to see him out of the lineup.

I'm not sure, did some looking online and saw some trade speculation but nothing confirmed that I have seen. I hope not.

Doesn't make sense to me. I think it's just speculation.

Might here more in the intermission. Seems a mystery for now.
Odd timing.

These guys can sure control possession when they want too. Good sequence there.

Right!!!! Great pressure there. Keep that up, looking like the pre-break Flames. Johnny couple good chances also before that.

That's a better scenario than a trade. Hope it's minor.

Sure hope so. I would not want him traded, at this time of a very promising season.

You see the Goalie comparison during the break? I don't know why but I'm getting an uneasy feeling with the deadline coming, things may go opposite of what I want.

I would like to see better goal tending come in, but not sure there is too much available.

How does Smith let a backhand from 30' out go top corner when he sees it coming the whole way...?

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

What is mentally wrong with this guy?
Thats the exact shot that can not go in and we expect to win. Seems when that happens, the other side just seems to get luckier and work a bit harder.

No matter what Kelly says, that was not a blistering shot. I kinda thought it was almost a floater.

How weak was that 'holding' call on Hathaway? Like....really, that's a penalty?

On that last goal, did you guys see Smith flinch and duck away from the shot? (Ducked down)
I only saw the replay once, but that is exactly what I thought.

I noticed he seemed to tuck his chin in too on the replay and drop his shoulder.

I want to see another replay. NHL goalies don't flinch. Atom goalies don't flinch.

I think flinch might be too strong, but he did have a reaction on that shot going past his ear...

I tried to slow down the video. In watching it again It was not a flinch. It seemed like he was trying to throw his shoulder up to stop it. That caused his head to drop.

Or, it was tipped out front causing him to move awkwardly

Or he flinched...


I will go with the first one. I will admit, that shot was moving.
