Game 25 Open Thread: Jackets vs. Flames

Calgary Flames at Columbus Blue Jackets, Nov 28, 2009 7:00 PM EST


Can the boys break the losing streak? Hopefully the return to Nationwide will be the tonic the team needs to get their act together. I expect big games from Stralman and Nasher. He's been playing hard, but has been kept off the scoresheet. Will Nasher pot one tonight? Will Stralman look to show his former team (for a brief period anyway) that they made a mistake in trading him?

Nice series of saves by Mase. Also, ref has a pretty intense mustache.

by zekebud on Nov 28, 2009 8:09 PM EST reply actions  

And there’s the other team scoring… unfortunate bounce and a slight screen to start messing things up.

NASH GOAL!!!

That was an excellent shift from the Nash line. Flames couldn’t do a thing.

by zekebud on Nov 28, 2009 8:39 PM EST reply actions  

I’m guessing that was a bad call against Boller?

I’m particularly happy with the Nash goal. Considering how the past 2 defenses couldn’t touch him, it’s nice to see all the great play pay off.

Red Wing announcers are particularly painful to me.

by zekebud on Nov 28, 2009 9:16 PM EST up reply actions  

Is it because they give off that “We’re better than everyone no matter what” attitude?

Yes, in fact. It’s much like the Devils announcers and anything to do with Brodeur.

interesting, flames aren’t so keyed in on prolonged play behind our net as has been openly talked about being one of mase’s weakness’
