[@jamesdiato]

Wow there was 5 ex and current flames goalies in town tonight! Markstrom, Vladar, Rittich, Talbot, and Miikka!

[@ashtonishing656]

Vernon and Krahn as well...

[@MrDeadstu]

Makes me tingle thinking Kipper is back in town tonight. Class act, totally deserves jersey retirement. 🔥

[@carlosanaya4149]

@@MrDeadstuhe was a beast

[@gfutube1]

Got to love the work ethic of the flames

[@joergn.1800]

It goes on. 😃 4 wins against strong Teams. And again a well deserved one.

[@kellenc_]

Calgary in the playoffs would be so much more interesting than LA

[@Sempiternalautumn]

Doubt it. Kings have had there ups and downs, but they're clearly a better team than Calgary.

[@Al3x4nd3er]

Obviously not clearly lol

[@smashmouth_cgy]

@@Sempiternalautumn yes, they definitely showed it tonight. Every team plays back-to-backs, good teams win them. Flames are 129-96-21-9 all time vs the Kings

[@Sempiternalautumn]

​@@smashmouth_cgy And? Kings beat the Flames 5-3 couple months ago. One win doesn't make the Flames the better team. 😂

[@smashmouth_cgy]

@@Sempiternalautumn And? The kings lost tonight 4-2. See above.

[@lunarbunny3021]

Marky coming in with some great saves, seems that broken finger really kickstarted him

[@russell-di8js]

He seems to have learnt to stay in front of the net which helps!

[@maxiceman]

Egor - well done!!! Belarus is rooting for you!!

[@toke7342]

Im no calgary fan, but thank you for beating that team.

[@MagicMike_101]

Nothing against LA

[@TheCityOfAngelsSports]

Back-to-back must-win games for the Kings, and they lose both of them. Missing two top six forwards and a top pair defenseman obviously doesn't make it any easier to win, but it also doesn't excuse the Kings. Good teams overcome critical injuries, and if the Kings can't find a way to do that, then they won't have any shot at the playoffs. This team has the roster to contend for a Stanley Cup. I truly believe that, and they showed that they could be a top team in the league over the first couple of months of the season. Right now though, it's a coaching problem. I believe Hiller is doing his best, but sadly, his best isn't good enough. There's a reason he's never been the head honcho in his coaching career until now. Since his debut as head coach, Hiller has constantly juggled the lines. Partially due to in-game injuries, but mostly because of this "mentality" he has, which is that anyone can play with anyone. Which isn't entirely wrong, as anyone SHOULD be able to play with any other player, but you can't expect them to build chemistry or get into a groove if every single game they're playing multiple shifts with varying line combinations. Every now and then is fine. You know, here and there, after a penalty kill or power play situation, or when someone gets injured mid-game perhaps, but not over a full 60 minutes. It's no surprise that this team has lost 3 of their last 4 games, when they can only score 7 goals over that span. Overall, they're 6-4 under Hiller's tenure, with 25 goals for, and 28 goals against. Winning 6 of 10 is okay, but they're not scoring enough, and 3 of the 4 losses they had were must-win games. L.A. plays Vancouver next, which they haven't been all that good against in recent years, and with how good Vancouver is this season, I'm sure the results this year won't be much different. I hope Hiller can eventually do good by this team, but I'm doubtful. Ultimately, Rob Blake is the one to blame. He gave up on this season the moment he allowed Hiller to assume the role of head coach.

[@machingunjelly]

Thanks for the novel -Flames fan

[@MrDeadstu]

LA has a YT PR department?

[@maahes7139]

They're not the same team that started the season. In my opinion they're a wild card team at best, unless Edmonton slows down but unlikely that will happen. LA can afford to lose a couple games here and there.

[@sergeyfomichev736]

It's nice that they've picked music for celebrating Sharky's goals.

[@1har2vey3]

Flames on fire again yeah

[@JoeyRona]

The deke by magiapane was insane what a goal

[@kevinkarbonik2928]

Oiler fan here but good for Calgary.

[@MagicMike_101]

Go Flames GO

[@jimjamz.]

8:36 Dubois crawling towards the bench as Calgary are on the offensive and ... a goal. What a surprise. Great thinking there, Dubois.

[@Noot_Penguin]

Kings losing twice 4-2 to Alberta you love to see it

[@russell-di8js]

If i don't have to see Wii Farrell in the play offs this year will be a success!

[@johnshields6852]

Fiala beautiful backhander

[@meotjaengi]

Never have I seen a player with the size of PLD get out-muscled and pushed around as much as he does. Interestingly enough, the whole team's strategy and positioning has been altered to compensate for his gliding around and lack of grit when he is on the ice. Fine bit of coaching strategy in that regard but just scratch him already. Bailey skates faster and hits harder than he does.

[@ministryofungentlemanlywarfare]

More like Sharin-goal-vich and Blake Goal-man.

[@russell-di8js]

Leg go of it man?

[@justinbarton8808]

This team is ridiculous, how do they not have more points? They can beat good teams but then they lose enough road games to stay in the basement? Lol weird team

[@bowriver1]

Where the hell is Al Gruntloud these days?

[@PeterDixon734]

This is what you get for extending Mclellan. Should've fired him when you got skunked by the soilers AGAIN.

where is Kuzmenko?

He’s sick, should be back Saturday.

[@spongechameleon6940]

The kings always look like they're wearing practice jerseys. How about a splash of color

[@kellenc_]

No idea why they don’t go back to the purple and yellow crowns uniforms, so much better. Same goes for Washington+Anaheim with their 2000’s looks

[@lunarbunny3021]

A red/yellow/orange subtle gradient jersey meant to mimic a California sunrise would look great

[@VGNtheunwise]

​@@kellenc_LA switches to purple & gold while Carolina takes black & white, maybe it's just me but the red on their uniforms seems unnecessary

Tuesday night, cold as balls, team is mid & likely missing playoffs, tickets are expensive.

No one want to go outside 😂 It’s cold enough to freeze the devil out there

[@ashtonishing656]

Cost of living. Trudeau must go!

[@randomphoneaccount]

whenever it gets suddenly cold no one goes to games, the nearest ctrain station is a pretty good walk away and a lot of people use it to get to games, so it’s not really worth spending that long in the cold

[@jclvmanagement7848]

Calgary once again benefactors of another Edmonton sloppy 2nd opponent on a back to back. Glad we could beat them up for you before they step on your ice. In this regard who cares. Oilers remain all alone in 3rd. Go Oilers!
