Which puts you an hour ahead.

I guess it is all in the way you look at it.

We'll see what we will see, but I think the other way around would be my preference. ,

Either way i hope they (both teams) don't eat too much turkey and it ends up being a tank cleaning night Merry CHristmas everyone

Well I saw the score, and noticed the Flameouts did just that. It appears the canuckleheads were that much better. However, it ain't over until the fat lady sings.. The season is not yet over.

Good win...but at the cost of one of our best defencemen

Didn't catch the game, was it good? Score kind of sucked, but hey...
it was in our building after all...

two defencemen collided knee-to-knee??

[LostMind]

game was good. I thought the flames were coming back but cloutier was a wall throughout the second.

the knee to knee didnt look like an accidental collision to me, but I dont know why anyone would do that on purpose.

It definitely was not an accident. On the replay, it's clear that it was intentional. Gauthier had the option of lifting either leg on impact. He chose to plant the "hitting" leg, lifted his off leg and leaned into it, so basically all of his weight went into that hit. Thus getting tossed out on the game misconduct.

There's talk of possible suspensions and Salo remains in Calgary while the rest of the team is back to play Edmonton tonight.

Update...Gauthier has been handed a 2 game suspension. Now both teams have lost players

Although I hate Edmonton even more than Vancouver, they are the last Alberta team with a chance to kick Vancouver's a** this time around.
