Flames @ Leafs - Apr. 1st, 7:00pm - SN, TSN 1050

[Tigger]

That little play by Kulemin covering Rielly ( I think ), so effective.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Gardiner with a beauty long pass to, Clarkson...

It's like every pass he receives is his first ever.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

That little play by Kulemin covering Rielly ( I think ), so effective.

One of the few (maybe the only) forward to really do that. It's also why he's so great with Kadri because he drops down to the centre position for defensive coverage.

 

[drummond]

Dallas - Washington 3-0 - good
Colorado - Columbus 0-1 - not good

 

[lamajama]

Yet it appears they will let him go...one of the most
defensively responsible players we have.

I agree. I'd say JVR has shown signs of being able to play like that but not like Kulemin does.

Yeah the problem with JVR is when the team needs a goal his defensive play really slips.

 

[ZBBM]

Good for Matt.  Good for him.

 

[drummond]

stajan of all people

 

[LittleHockeyFan]

rats.....I can't even b!tch about Matty Stajan scoring. Always loved him :-(

I am encouraged by JVR's growth as an overall player though so I can live with some warts as he's maturing.

Schenn... oi


...and what a little move by Gardiner at the blue line before the little Stajan that could ties it up.

 

[mc]

Oh Clarkson....

 

[ZBBM]

The crowd is electric tonight.  Drawing energy from the team, which is full-throated desperation mode as they try to hang onto their playoff hopes.

 

[gunnar36]

I just don't get it, another game with very little desperation shown.  This team plays like they are looking forward to the off season.

I took a glance at the cleavage 

 

[ZBBM]

I like this young Rielly.  A lot.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Man, Rielly is ridiculously good.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Both goals have come off defencemen essentially banking the puck off a streaking forward.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

I thought he was falling for sure.
