Why oh why did we not call a time out on the 2nd icing!!!!

I was screaming at the TV to call one. Blaze had momentum.

Take a time out!!

I haven't watched the game so I might be misunderstanding but you can't call a time out when it's icing.

[kgw]

Pathetic, absolutely pathetic

Really?

Ah, didn’t realise that. Fair point.

Won on Penalties

We deserved the win. Could easily have won that 7-4. Got out of jail there.

Will take that, they don’t ask how come the end of the season.

There’ll be an inquest into that 6-on-5 period tomorrow I’m sure, and a more clinical side would’ve ended the game as a contest far earlier.

We create so much but are quite poor in front of goal percentage wise.

But a win is a win, another 2 on the board and in to the next one.

Not really , gutsy call to pull the NM with nearly 4 mins left, rarely works but did this time, on general play we were miles better but their nm played a great game to keep them in it.

[paul johnston]

We repeatedly iced the puck when we were playing Flyers recently and they had pulled their netminder. Terrible tactic, whatever happened to chipping it put to the neutral zone. It wouldn't be so bad if we had a guy who could win 75% of d zone faceoffs but we don't.
Sounds a very sloppy last 10 minutes and who's to say that point essentially gifted to Blaze won't make the difference at end of year?

What was the overall performance like?
