  1. LFG! Out of town was good to us this weekend. If we have a good week, the playoff race could get very interesting.

  2. likethemouse

    Who’s excited to stay up til almost midnight on a Monday to witness yet another OT loss?!?

  3. Armchair-Gm-Podcast

    Need a couple big wins back to back here or we can kiss our playoffs hopes goodbye

  4. getthatcoffee

    All these late games are making ~~me go a big rubbery one~~ my penis soft

    Edited for clarity

  5. CalgaryCheekClapper

    Flames will eclipse jets odds of playoffs with a win(moneypuck)

    What is this team?

    What is life?

    What am I?

    Who is hockey?

    When is happy?

    This is a must win obviously. But it’s gonna be tough, LA is on fire

  8. yeggiest

    The hockey gods kept the flames in this last night with the Jets and the Preds. Tonight is absolutely do or die. Yes, LA is a damn good team but we pounded Vegas, a much better team than LA. In the last few weeks this team has really started to play a different level of hockey than the rest of the season, you can see how they don’t get flustered and over play or disheartened and play poorly when the score isn’t going their way, they have way more fight in them and they just stick to the plan and apply constant pressure. If they keep it up tonight I’m not worried.

    Huberdeau, Backlund, and nobody looks like a great 2nd line to be honest

    We’ve been gifted a golden opportunity with the jets and preds both getting blanked yesterday, we win this and we’re right back in it… if we can snag dubs in both games in a consecutive back to backs then we’ve got the most momentum we’ve had since the start of the season.

    we’re starting to score more consistently, just gotta try to keep it going and dial in defensively again. Marky had a bit of an off night against Dallas but that’s okay he’s been better as of late

    We need to gain some goddamn ground today and get 2 goddamn points. Idc how we get it. Just get it.

    Who’s on the second line? Coleman game time decision?
