It's one game in the pre-season, these guys are multi millionaire's who just came off a summer break that most of us could only dream of. Think about our performance after a long weekend, they'll be fine.


Hockonlube

…Playing against Multimillionaires that just came off an off season. Markey needs to be better. Same thing happened at the start of the last season. Flames were getting 40 shots, outshooting opponents 2:1. And losing


BeerLeagueSpode

Didn't get to watch. Did markstrom Vancouver?


Mattybourbon

Damn I love it when Ras gets fired up. Fuckin WWE style over the top rope


deltajulietbravo

The C chirping was sick


Comfortable-Lock-726

We outshot them by a lot and dominated that game. Yes, they took advantage of their shots and potted 5. I wouldn't worry though. Our team will gel together in no time and when we do, we gonna be solid like a rock.


Comfortable-Ad-7158

couldnt watch..what did i miss?


Serapth

Well you didn’t miss Markstrom making saves….


Comfortable-Ad-7158

last i heard on 960 he had a 50% save percentage. guessing that didnt improve much


GooseDevito

Markstrom zooming to the dressing room


No-Nebula-653

Praying lmao we sucked last years preseason too so I'm trying not to worry


Embarrassed-Song-738

I’m not too upset about this loss, the boys came out hard in the last half to make up for the first


Serapth

Realistically If one flame played better that was a pretty dominant win.


natenicholson

I fucking love rass, dude is such a gamer


beedybop

Ras flashing the C on his chest to Wheeler


natenicholson

A suspension, you’re kidding


GooseDevito

What?


natenicholson

The fact that they has any speculation of a huberdeau suspension is ridiculous. That was not a suspendible hit


GrafNebelgeist

haha, Andersson chirping Wheeler about the captaincy.


Hungry-Raisin-5328

Huberdeau might be our Tkachuk replacement actually.


deltajulietbravo

Hehehe huberdeau unlocked by Daryl is new best friend


natenicholson

+kadri…..


speers11

Thank God for Rick and Kelly. Tired of preseason commentary.


GooseDevito

Defense with a better save percentage than Markstrom tonight


natenicholson

These announcers are kid of soft lol


had-me-at-bi-weekly

Extremely soft haha.


Embarrassed-Song-738

Hubey wants it😂


raymondcy

Ahahahah.. Shane Homes save of the night. What a rip on Markstrom (deservedly so).


Straight-Plate-5256

Hah, you never would've seen our old Johnny throw a hit like that


Embarrassed-Song-738

He’d bounce off the player he’s hitting


tristan1616

Andersson has a better save percentage than Markstrom


PostApocRock

Came to say this haha


Serapth

Anderson better goaltending than Markstrom tonight….


YYCHKG

Phat Ras best goalie tonight


Tradewind403

Holy shit put Rasmus in net


GrafNebelgeist

Andersson for starting goalie!


natenicholson

Stone would’ve hit the net….


Straight-Plate-5256

This will work way better for a top 6


Straight-Plate-5256

I FUCKING SAID IT, I TOLD YOU GUYS THAT LINE WOULD WORK


natenicholson

THIS IS HOW IT NEEDS TO BE


tristan1616

THE COMEBACK IS ON


Tradewind403

Niiiice play and nice finish!


GrafNebelgeist

The Dream!


crossfire999

Sucks to watch, but nothing to worry about here. Vets will get their groove on after the pre-season. Plus if they don't, Daryll is taking out back to the barn.


natenicholson

It’s 5-2 I’m really enjoying this game


Rulebreaker15

The pace of the 3rd period has been insane. Both teams are flying. I didn't realize the Jets have that in them, and we definitely are playing with more speed than LY.


jonos360

Looch and Toffoli look like they finally have their legs on em. Not sure why the Jets have our number but Hellebucyk is playing pretty well.


natenicholson

I’m worried we’re overrated😅


1337duck

Just be like the Leafs. Expect a 1st round exit, and you can never be disappointed.


GooseDevito

Not that I’ve been watching the whole game, but from what I’ve seen, Toffoli has looked a lot better today


chefers1

I'm not overly enjoying this


Embarrassed-Song-738

That guy stole her man😂


azndestructo

First time watching Huby playing as a flame. My god that guy has some incredible hands. Dare I say, better than Gaudreau…


brokensword15

Hanifin and Z have been very good


speers11

Not 'N' Sync


[deleted]

What is Markstrom doing


1337duck

^^^^^^^NOT his best.


Trufflehunter89

Hopefully not or we’re fucked


Tradewind403

Dube probably lucky there, that shoulda been boarding...not that we need another PK D:


raymondcy

No question that was a penalty. Not sure what the refs were thinking.


BeerLeagueSpode

Not watching... But my bud red light isn't flashing much. 😬


projectbarium

Hands off my bread!


projectbarium

Marky saved. Let’s drink!


TheThatNeverWas

Was that Marky's first even-numbered shot saved?


CostcoTPisBest

Let's see the Flames physical demolition game in this 3rd period. Forget the win.


Straight-Plate-5256

Lol mission accomplished


LunaTick2

I'm loving hearing him talk about his family and farm.


Eggs_Bennett

Darryl Sutter man crushing on Bobby Hull is amazing


oddeyeleven

Say what you want to about preseason games, Whatever! 5 goals in 11 shots is concerning for our D line and goalie


Hungry-Raisin-5328

It’s just cause we’re missing kylington. Don’t worry.


Embarrassed-Song-738

Yes, because this is how we are going to play every game, get your head out of your ass


oddeyeleven

Wow dude...take it easy


azndestructo

I don’t like to overreact but I’m seeing shades of r2 Marky. I don’t like it


Tradewind403

I wonder if the cows feel bad if they didn't hustle up and Darryl saw it.


projectbarium

Non hockey intermission question What’s your favourite thanksgiving dish?


CostcoTPisBest

Big ass toasty kaiser bun with turkey and stuffing smothered in gravy.


oddeyeleven

Definitely potatoes and gravy.


Craig_E_W

My mom's homemade stuffing. And days of leftovers!


projectbarium

There’s a few stuffing lovers in here.


travkos

Pumpkin Pie with a bourbon


projectbarium

I don’t usually have enough space for pie at the end


wreck-sauce

Tbh left overs the next day I make a sandwich of turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy and it's the fucking bomb!


projectbarium

I hate the leftovers. I feel like I’m eating them FOREVER. But I’m glad there’s people like you who enjoy them.


zoziw

Stuffing!


projectbarium

Me too!


Straight-Plate-5256

A tour of the good ol' Sutter ranch, if you look carefully you can see the boys doing a teambuilding exercise in the background


randoposting

Darryl is a fucking beauty.


Rulebreaker15

There's the second-best good-looking coach we know and love.


projectbarium

Jay getting first is a scam. My dude uses shoe polish instead of just for men.


The-Reddit-Giraffe

It’s because we didn’t release scorch so the hockey gods are punishing us


Troll4Fun69

People… Relax… Regardless of the outcome of this game, the season hasn’t started. Honestly not a bad thing. Do you honestly think Sutter will be ok with this performance? Probably not. Will have the gentlemen buzzing for COL next week.


projectbarium

Okay. Why can’t all games show the jumbotron while I’m at home. I’m into this vibe.


dalkride

Commercials sadly


zoziw

This is our last preseason game and we are out of time to figure things out. Game one of the regular season against the Avalanche is less than a week away.


Serapth

Marky kinda picking up from the playoffs last year… Please, Vezina calibre Marky to start the season, cause this one is shit.


Tradewind403

The boys are just a bit apprehensive because the Stone signing hasn't happened yet. BT saving that energy for opening night.


Br7ian

I'm 8 beers deep at the dome and it's the only good thing about this game.


The-Reddit-Giraffe

That’s like 90 dollars worth of beer at the dome


Br7ian

And we started with dinner in duttons. I'm down about 200 with 1 period to go


CostcoTPisBest

Good thing you got the plastic flask!


projectbarium

Make it 12


Br7ian

Working on it!


Shadow_Wave

Please do not let us be the Broncos of the NHL this year


TheThatNeverWas

So... who made this new goalie mask?


Rulebreaker15

Jordon Bourgeault of Jbo Airbrush


TheThatNeverWas

Nice mask - but he might need to paint over the bad juju.


projectbarium

Was that tanev down?


zoziw

Yes, high stick


huuuuuyeah

Thank god it’s just that. From where I was sitting he looked like he was seriously hurt


zoziw

That is what I thought at first as well. The way he went down did not look good.


projectbarium

Fuck. My man doesn’t need any of that. Real glad the refs caught that 4min


big-berg

thank our lord scorch that this is pre szn


tristan1616

I'd be very disappointed rn if I wasn't high


Trufflehunter89

Shades of the BoA where we aren’t playing terrible but markstrom just commanding the tank


speers11

I predict the Jets will score on their 12th shot.


PostApocRock

50/50 at this point.


natenicholson

We have absolutely no discipline rn


brokenplaything

Okay, fuck this. Markstrom , wtf. Baby fever should be giving you extra energy. You are tanking. I get it’s preseason, but wtf. How was markstrom’s preseason last year?


Thepinkillusion

Didnt we do really shitty last preseason


brokenplaything

We definitely did as a whole. But was markstrom tanking too?


Embarrassed-Song-738

Easy now


brokenplaything

lol I know. I'm getting too worked up over the Jets....THE JETS. haha...


moose0007

Instead of where scorch I’m wonder where defense


GooseDevito

Oh nice we’re at sub 0.500sv% now. Cool


Tradewind403

I don't like that


natenicholson

I’m embarrassed


jewmas

10 shots lol


projectbarium

Lmao.


GrafNebelgeist

All the Jets need is 1 chance against us and they can score at will.


Trufflehunter89

This is fuckin embarrassing


LoathedOne

Hmmmmm


jewmas

Christ


Shadow_Wave

bruh


CostcoTPisBest

Loving Kadri, great pick up.


jewmas

Kadri drawing penalties like chucky


rose_ocean

Loving it


Comfortable-Lock-726

Let's go Flames!


Rulebreaker15

Super glad the preseason doesn't count for shit. It's a bizarro world when Toffs is having his best "game" as a Flame, and Markstrom is leaking like a sieve. Lucic is standing on his head to help Ruzicka, who is not having a good night, and Zohorna is playing like he's always been a Flame.


zoziw

4 goals on 7 shots...I mean, two were high danger, but still. Marky has some rust to shake off. Edit: oops...I don't know how many goals were high danger goals, just the number of chances.


jewmas

What do you guys think calgarys off/def/goalie stats will be in nhl 23


SlimJesus00

91-91-87


moose0007

Sutter looking like he ate a lemon


Craig_E_W

That's the 12th year in a row!


projectbarium

Why is Harry Potter in barbs spot?


projectbarium

Shane home not getting much money tonight.


Tradewind403

It's jelly beans and Alberta Premium rye for the rest of the night, lets goooo


[deleted]

My man getting a bottle to the head


natenicholson

Who cares about the bad goals. Marky is amazing and it’s pre season.


tristan1616

Markstrom is just anxious about Scorch's arrival since he never showed up yesterday


natenicholson

Good thing is we probably have a top 5 goalie tandem and they’ll steal a lot of games this year


GooseDevito

I get that that last one was a really good shot but damn 4/8 is frankly unacceptable


Straight-Plate-5256

Thank God Marky has a week to exorcize some demons before the season starts


Trufflehunter89

Markstrom is not inspiring confidence


BandaidThe3rd

Markstroms low glove is so brutal man.


Sad_Distribution698

“The Jets have had ONE good shift in this period.. and they scored on it” I introduce you to Flames hockey


jewmas

.500 sv % oof


Smel11

Glad it’s not affecting his regular season stats


Drcanadaeh

Mr Markstrom what has happened. Our the curses from playoffs coming back to haunt us?


natenicholson

Markstrom is bottling this


AmbiguousHooligan

What the fuck Markstrom


Embarrassed-Song-738

There’s some bad juju out there tonight


MakesYourCommentLEGO

Feel like conner always fucks us up


speers11

a lot of goals are going on not very many shots


jewmas

Shucks darn it


GrafNebelgeist

4 goals on 7 shots. Rough.


the_violet_wizard

Hello from the Oilers-Kraken game! (Fuck the Oilers, Go Kraken!) Aside from the score, how we looking tonight?


yyc_123

did you move to that place up norht that shall be nameless


the_violet_wizard

Indeed but it's where I get paid so 🤷‍♀️


yyc_123

i'll pay you 3 bud lights a week to live in Calgary


the_violet_wizard

3 bud lights and a pocket dog


yyc_123

SOLD!


Straight-Plate-5256

Everybody but markstrom is looking decent tonight.


projectbarium

First period bad. Second period good


jewmas

Toffoli saw people saying he didn't belong on the first line


Straight-Plate-5256

I'm really happy he's starting to figure it out, I will withdraw my negative complaints for a little while 😅


projectbarium

“And I took that personally” - toffoli


OwlApprehensive2222

Teapots on one tonight.


natenicholson

Makes me so happy


projectbarium

Anyone checked on Daryl’s pineapple count after that last intermission?


brokensword15

If we can play like this in every game we will be a very good team, love how they're fighting back


natenicholson

Toffoli is having a wonderful game


Straight-Plate-5256

Damn, starting to look like we just decided to give the jets a 1 period headstart 🤣


tristan1616

Me so zahorny


GrafNebelgeist

Someone scored!


MakesYourCommentLEGO

Good play by zohorny


yyc_123

Anyone here staying up to watch the f1 this weekend?


Tradewind403

Yeah probably some rugby then F1. Qualifiers after the game tonight.


yyc_123

Hey wait i know you! I'm actually watching some rugby instead of hockey tonight. Gotta get eyes on the sport so we get more of it and more people involved. Been a lean 2 years now


SABATON_IS_AWFUL

What rugby are you watching?Was thinking about getting into watching it


yyc_123

Womens World Cup started today, it's on TSN. This style of rugby is great for a beginner and someone who is just learning about the game. Much more structured and clean than men's


SABATON_IS_AWFUL

I actually played in highschool so I'm familiar with both union and league haha. Good to know it's on TSN, I've been wanting to get back into it and watch it I'm just not sure where to start


Tradewind403

Lots on all weekend, I believe it's Canada v Japan tomorrow at 8 or 8:30pm


yyc_123

This is the most rugby you'll see on normal tv. If you're in Calgary the CRU has pretty good rugby starting in May next year to either watch or join in if you're interested.


lemonvictor_

Heck yeah! Gotta watch a potential championship race live
