First off, thanks to everyone who came to the Flames blogger meetup earlier this week. Was great to put a face to the name of everyone there. I took a few pictures that I'll post if they're any good when I get home in Toronto.
Right now, I'm watching Canada collapse spectacularly against Sweden in the world juniors. I'm not especially superstitious, but by the 100th time the commentators marveled at the shutout streak and subsequently the winning streak by Canada I was thinking "you know, you're just asking for a jinx". Lo and behold...whatever.
The Flames! Back on home ice, which isn't encouraging, but against Anaheim, which is somewhat encouraging. I'm leaning towards a Flames win tonight, if only because they owe me a win for a game I actually attend. It's been brutal, especially since the last game I was at was Sunday's vs the Devils (enough said, I'd hope).
I'm going to predict a 3-2 Flames win with goals by Iginla, Lombardi, and Nilson.
Edit: At least Backlund set that play up. ;)

I noticed that it was Backlund that set up that goal as well. I was just wondering why the second defenceman felt that he had to go after Backlund as well, and thus leaving the trailing player all alone in front...
ReplyDeleteWhat a play by Backlund. Six points in 3 games for that kid!
ReplyDeleteAnd what a game.
