And Campbell has been awful.

Every team has defensive lazy games, but if your starting goaltender can't do what Allen did last night, 6-8 times a season, then you just left 16 points on the table and probably will miss the playoffs because of it. In 24 games, Campbell has not done it once.

Right now I would waive Campbell and run Skinner and Pickard
Fair enough and a reasonable take

WOW what a 2nd period, 6 goals and only 1 so far that's not on the PP out of the 7 total goals, the PP is the flavor of the night and the PK is not

McD was a beast tonight. Skinner did his job well. A better win for sure.

The amount of Habs fans at the game was crazy. It felt like they were louder than the Oilers fans, that is until McDavid shut them all up. Fun night out with the missus.

Yeah I was also at the game what an exciting game. Made for a good atmosphere at the game with all those red jerseys mixed in the crowd. Same thing happens when the Leafs come to town as well.

I guess the Flames didn't soften the Caps up quite enough the other night.

The Yotes are BAD. What an incredibly sad franchise. Imagine that one team plays in Mullett Arena with a capacity of 5000 and another plays in Madison Square Garden while in the same league. Please just put them out of their misery.

Yup the yotes are bad, but the Blackhawk's, blue jackets and Ducks are tied or below them in the standings, misery loves company

Way too many shots on net but Skinner stood tall.

Oilers played way better than the Flames tonight. More points is good.

5 power plays given will skew the numbers, yet Skinner was up to the task.

Yup big win, still giving up a lot of chances but Skinner answered the bell, we'll take the points and move on.
I see the flamers had a lack luster performance against a bottom feeder and Johnny Hockey
