GDT: Wild @ Flames, 2:00 PM MT (9:00 PM GMT)

[Straight Fire]

Thats the division lead right now.....crazyness

This has been one of the weirdest starts to an nhl season for the Flames ever. I had zero expectations for the year except bad ones lol. Then we get the start we did and somehow have kept rolling even after some eventual losses. Just so crazy!

 

[flames23]

I had wild -131 last night before the Kaprizov news, then again at +165 when were up 1-0. Barely got that in before they equalized. Then again at +900 in the third.

Once we hit ot I hedged a bit on Flames at -104 to limit my exposure.

Overall? I lost $21. Haha. Would have been up $400 if the Wild pulled it off.

Still I found myself flipping off Hartman as he came down on Vlad. RAAAAAAT. Lol.

Go team.

I'm truly flabbergasted.

In the best way possible, but gasted my flabber is indeed.

I agree. If I can join you on the gasted flabber train, I'd appreciate it.

 

[JurassicTunga]

Even the refs, and the wave can't stop the Flames. Could've and probably should have been a regulation win, but whatever.
Well played game. The Flames just get better as games go on, it seems, and that's a nice thing.

Wasn't impressed with Vladar, he was pants in the third but he redeemed himself in S/O.

Expected that as per my message from earlier.

I think Cooley would be a better, more reliable and trusted back up.

Also, has anyone seen Coleman the last few games?

Lol, you're way too hard on our goalies. They're fine in my opinion, especially for the cost of both of them. Agreed with your statement about Vladar in the shootout, he was excellent. Both late goals were on a powerplay and a 6 on 5, always tough when you're down a man.

Anyways, onto the next one, I'm having a great time this season, I like results and the boys have been giving them to us. Costco is still blowing my mind.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Well wasn't the prettiest. PP finally cooking with gas.
Liked Hubes and Zary. A Kevin Rooney goal is something to see even if he took a lazy penalty. Everybody else was more or less just OK. Can tell these minutes are catching up to Weegs and Ras.

I might well be but Vladar is very flaky, you could sense when 5 to go this wasn't ending smoothly and there it was...

Oh well, having a jolly good time this season. All those early mornings are paying off.

Was a nice evening game for us Europeans

Really liked our game tonight, very crisp, fast puck exchanges.

Not going to mention Kirkland, the guy is a stud!

Fried mashed potatoes?

Fried mashed potatoes are the best.

 

[TheHudlinator]

Well we f***ed around but a W is a W. Didn't think Vlad was amazing but he was very good in the shoot out.

Seasons like this one with 0 expectations are so fun

 

[Rubi]

The secret to good fried mashed potatoes is your left over mashed potatoes can't be too wet. Some people make their mashed potatoes with the consistency of porridge. Thats too much moisture.
Frying your mashed potatoes in butter is best. I spread the potatoes out so it looks like a pancake and let it fry and then when the pan side is golden I flip it and fry the other side. I always found eggs and sausage go best with the fried left over mashed potatoes.

I agree. If there was a way to gamble on whether Vladar's game Sv% would be above or below .900 I'd bet below every time and would be a wealthy man in short order. I just don't trust him when the chips are down.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Yeah if there is a trade out there for Vladar we should absolutely take it. He just makes every save seem difficult. Too many rebounds, especially on routine saves that Dustin would control no problems

 

[Anglesmith]

Hashtag cup or bust.

Hash brown cup or bust

I think the truth is there has never been a deal for him. Seems like a great teammate but he is a below 900 goalie.

 

[Yepthatsme]

Also why would we trade him, he’s doing his job perfectly this season. Gives our team a reliable enough start when we don’t play Wolf, and he’s good enough that if Wolf struggles we can give Vladar a couple extra but also not good enough that when Wolf is hot we can keep him on the bench. Not really worth blowing that up for a 4th.

I slept through this one, but glad to wake up to the win.

Whatever is knocking me on my ass for the last month or more is ridiculous. I did basically a variation of everything in the poll today.
