Back on Track?
February 3rd, 2010 by Pat Steinberg
You can make it points in 4 of their last 5 games, and you can make it wins 2 of the last 3 for the Calgary Flames…they take a 4-1 win at home over the Carolina Hurricanes on Wednesday night. It’s Calgary’s 28th win of the season and it vaults them back into a tie […]
There’s a First for Everything
January 31st, 2010 by Pat Steinberg
Well, for the first time in 9 games, the Calgary Flames left the ice with 2 points…and for the first time in the 29 year history of the Battle of Alberta, one team won every single meeting. That being the Flames, who finished off the provincial series with a 6-1 win on Saturday night. Fact […]
Closer…But Still No
January 27th, 2010 by Pat Steinberg
Make the winless streak 8 games, the longest for the Calgary Flames since 2001-2002…Calgary fell 4-3 in a shootout Wednesday night at the hands of the Dallas Stars. It was a game where Calgary looked better, and showed some good signs, yet were unable to close out a 2 goal lead. The Flames were outplayed […]
Not Good Enough
January 22nd, 2010 by Pat Steinberg
The effort Calgary put forth on Thursday night at home to Chicago was better than Monday’s debacle in San Jose, but it wasn’t good enough. The Flames fell 3-1 to the Chicago Blackhawks, Calgary’s 7th straight regular season loss to the Hawks. It’s also Calgary’s 6th straight loss overall, they’ve dropped 8 of their last […]
Didn’t Come Close
January 19th, 2010 by Pat Steinberg
“We didn’t come close.” Those were the words of Calgary Flames Head Coach Brent Sutter following a 9-1 loss at the hands of the San Jose Sharks on Monday night. And Calgary didn’t come close in their most lopsided loss in almost 4 years.
This one started bad and spiralled out of control, and there’s not […]
Flames Lose Fourth Straight
January 17th, 2010 by Pat Steinberg
For the first time this season, Calgary carried a lead into the third period of play and lost in regulation…that’s exactly what happened Sunday night in southern California as the Flames fell 5-4 at the hands of the Anaheim Ducks. Calgary falls to 26-17-6 on the season, and they lost their 11th straight game at […]
The Woes Continue
January 15th, 2010 by Pat Steinberg
After being seemingly snakebitten the last 2 games against Colorado and Pittsburgh, the offensive woes came to a bit of a peak on Friday night as Calgary fell 1-0 to the Nashville Predators. It was a game where Calgary didn’t give up much…they allowed just 21 shots and just 1 goal, yet they could not […]
Offensive Woes
January 13th, 2010 by Pat Steinberg
So, the Calgary Flames threw 35+ shots on net for a 3rd straight game…but for a second straight game, the Flames were unable to earn the 2 points. In fact, on Wednesday, Calgary wasn’t able to earn any points as they fell 3-1 to the Pittsburgh Penguins in their only meeting with the defending Cup […]
You Did Everything Right, Except…
January 12th, 2010 by Pat Steinberg
For the second straight game, the Calgary Flames fired 40+ shots on the opposition net, and for the second straight game the Flames went to extra time. In fact, for a second straight night, the Flames twice in regulation and had their game finish 3-2. Except on Monday night at home to Colorado, Calgary came out […]
More Than Adequate
January 10th, 2010 by Pat Steinberg
A lot of Calgary Flames fans were hoping their team would present an adequate response following 2 unimpressive games against Minnesota and Columbus. Well, I think they got more than that on Saturday night in Vancouver, as they took a 3-2 shootout win over the Canucks. As a result, Calgary improves their record to 26-14-5 […]
