I mean the stats don't lie.

High danger chances were 71% to 29% in the Leafs favour.

But sure you beat the Leafs. Congrats on your biggest accomplishment of the season.

Well the goalies part of the team. Markstrom was the best player for either team tonight along with probably Edler.

Is this really a game you want to brag about?

I mean, the game should have been 6-2, at best. 3 pathetically weak goals allowed by Brossoit in that 3rd.

Not to mention the Oilers had numerous posts and breakaways stopped.

Flames D generate offense

That's why they're hyped up on fancy stats. Possession doesn't mean they are elite defensively

7 goals, 6 breakaways, a goal called back and 4 posts. If brossoit didn't give up 3 beyond soft goals this is a laugher

I find this comment very odd. Edmonton played a great game overall and limited Calgary to very little while having 6 breakaways (only scored on 1), 4 posts, a goal called back and somehow only had 2 powerplays to the Flames 6 despite controlling play for most of the night, and still managed 7 goals. The flurry of goals against was hardly anything I'd be ashamed of as a fan, if anything it was enlightening that Brossoit is not an NHL goalie and is an area the team should look to address for a backup. I'm quite happy with the team's performance overall tbh considering Talbot, Larsson, and Sekera are all injured.

Brossoit should not be anywhere near an NHL net. Holy man

Brutal goals given up

Maroon's game winning goal was terrible. The Flames might have won this one if they kept Smith in net. The Oilers were scoring a lot against him but he was making huge saves too. It could have been worse.

Rittich also stopped 2 breakaways, although he had the help of a bear hug around McDavid on the second one.

Top 5 d in the league leaks 7 to the Oilers. Hilarious.

Post is regurgitated too much.

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

Ha ha....stupid Flames....can't beat the oilers......lol......

Oilers fans packed the saddledome. Oilers will have the 2nd largest market/footprint in Canada if the flames move and Calgary will be left in good hands by us. What a roller coaster of a game.

Brosslol needs to goooo

It is a trouncing and an easy battle for the market share. It's not close

Blues just dropped their third in a row usually they save these type a losing streaks for the playoffs
