Crazy game. Wings up 4-3 with half the third period left.

 

[biggunsbob]

Dumb as wings give up a 3 on 2 short handed goal. Embarrassing defensive yet again in the third period .. 4-4 .

 

[biggunsbob]

And now the lead is gone. Pp Goal number 3 tonight by the Flames. Losing 5-4 now.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Shorty and PP. Come on get a goal.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Special teams really sucked tonight.

 

[biggunsbob]

Wings play hard but seem poorly coached to me. Making the little plays up 4-3 and this game may have been a win. I guess that will be with better players.

 

[Mitchrapp]

3 PP and a Shorty, no one wins that. Too passive when they're short handed. They just stand there.

 

[Polish-Hammer]

Despite the loss, it was one hell of an entertaining game.

Wings were a bit hard done not to get at least a point out of it.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Can't have those penalties against a high scoring team.
