Here ya go...Ehhhhhh
I’d have to see the overtop angle, but I’m not seeing it. Anyways, I won’t press this any further because f*** the oilers and I don’t really give af.

Just finishing watching. Ras looked like Zary on that goal what a great game by him.
Glad Savard is gone; now Toronto is struggling.
Just nice to see us crush the Oil.
Such an unexpected nice feel being 3-0 when expecting to be 0-3. Craziness.
The Oilers are always at one of the two extremes: either an unstoppable juggernaut or a laughing stock. No middle ground. Must be exhausting as a fan tbh.I don't know if it's funny or sad that the Oilers are accustomed to a shit start, firing a coach and hoping to go on another unsustainable run.
Agree, they are not winning because of skill, they are winning because of hard work and giving 100%. It's not gonna last a full season and the eventual drop in play due to fatigue might be steep. But I'll enjoy this as long as it lasts.Fun to be 3-0.
I don't think Calgary can sustain this pace, but it's really fun for the time being!
This team does look like it's having fun though. Like the guys seem to be out there having fun, they have each others' back; playing well structured hockey.
I've probably seen enough to think that the worst they'll do it probably in the 7-12 range at the draft. Which bodes well for Montreal.
the defense is going to catch up with us IMO, especially when we start sustaining some injuries. Also look at our opponents, season opener in Vancouver without their #1 goalie, we shouldn't have won but rallied for an injured teammate.... Philly on a night dedicated to Johnny... and then our #1 rival... these might be the 3 of the 5 most emotional games of the season for our guys (the two vs Columbus being the other 2)Agree, they are not winning because of skill, they are winning because of hard work and giving 100%.

I think that is extremely unlikely. Our defense is going to be f***ing terrible.Yeah, but when you taste that win streak, you might somehow keep finding more to keep playing hard. Then you get gassed in the playoffs. (ie: 2014-2015.)

And that's why scorched earth rebuild is often not a good thing. You need good prospects, but you need to show them what it takes to win.Flames were 5-1-1 in the preseason and are now 3-0-0 in the regular season.
While I'm not planning a parade it appears a trend is developing. Not so much the record, but the underlying systems and effort of a team that is clearly not as bad as some people think.
If the system play and the identity of hard work and pace has taken hold, this Flames team will go as far as the goaltending will take us.
And I'm confident about that too. Wolf looked very much like a seasoned NHL pro against the Flyers. Vladar looked very much like a seasoned NHL pro against the Oilers.
Both had very good mechanics. Playing to to the top of the crease, covering angles, rebound control.
And being the underdog instills a fighting spirit, the us against the world mentality.
This group will be fun to watch this year.
