Post-game summary, team news, and commentary.
Which Calgary Flames came out of the 5 day mandated break? The December Flames, that's who. That's a non-playoff hockey team in case you're wondering. That team is slow, constantly out battled, has a top line that takes the night off, and can't generate any sense of...
Two weeks ago, with the Flames sitting near the bottom of the Western Conference, you had the sense that without an immediate win streak, the season would be lost before January was out. Well, throw in some good play, a dash of irate coach, and today the Flames site...
Two out of three periods dominant, asleep during the third, and another OT thriller. That about sums up the Flames 4th win in a row, the highest such win-streak of the season. Hat tip to Mike Smith. He's stellar on the road and shut the door tonight. Flames can brush...
Every team that plays the Ducks knows you gotta deal with the dirt. The dirtiest team in the NHL will try to gain their edge playing on the line. It works. It has against the Flames for years, perhaps decades, but you get the the sense the tide is turning. One day...
The Calgary Flames are unbeaten in 2018! Which is to say they've won two in a row. Stringing together wins is something this team has been unable to accomplish since the season started. It's why they're out of a playoff spot and only have a chance of grabbing a Wild...
Flames beat a good team with a solid game. Everything seemed to be clicking, less the top line. What the Flames need, nay, require, now is consistency. Montreal is coming before Christmas. Then it's a brief Cali road swing. They need to string wins together if they...
As the Western Division continues to remain jammed with teams jokeying for playoff position, the Calgary Flames continue their own struggles finding consistency in their game. In the past week the team has gone 1-2-1 suffering defeats when their game has inexplicably...
Consistent hockey is something that eludes the Calgary Flames. Consistency is what separates good teams from the ones who don't make the playoffs. The team is currently hovering around the .500 mark, not good enough for all concerned. After lacklustre efforts at home...
Calgary 3 - Colorado 2 The Calgary Flames ended their six game, 11-day, road trip with a win against the Colorado Avalanche. The Flames come home over .500 on the trip, showed some moments of brilliance, and put up some duds as well. Here are some parting thoughts on...
The Flames should've stayed on the plane. Starting a long road trip, Calgary put up their worst effort of the year one game after putting up their best. The post game summary will be on the Twitter feed @flamesstamps The question will be what the league will do after...
The Calgary Flames faced the St Louis Blues, the best team in Western Conference, for the final game of a 7 homestand. One of the critiques on the up Flames game was the lack of secondary scoring. There were hints they were breaking out last game versus Detroit, but...
There is it. What we've all been waiting for. Secondary scoring. There hasn't been a 5v5 goal ALL YEAR from the bottom six forwards, but tonight a few decided to show up. Here's the brief post-game summary. News before the game was Rasmus Andersson getting into his...
This was a fun game to watch. Lots of scoring, high pace, extra hockey, and a win to boot. Here's a quick summary. YOU CAN PUT IT IN THE WIN COLUMN! Chucky wins it in a shootout! #NJDvsCGY pic.twitter.com/l79GPFW5Yd— #FlamesFightCancer (@NHLFlames) November 6,...
Only one thing is working for the Flames and that's the goalie. Making 43 saves, 21 of them in the first period alone, this team is completely lost. Half of the forwards are lost. The D are hemmed in their own end and are lost. The goalie, well for a change he's not...
The Flames have not found an identity that even glimpses this team improved over the past two seasons. Sad really. Tonight, they lost, yet again, for the same reasons. Let's review the three. Hamonic with his worst game yet. Overpayment on this D man it seems as this...
