Flames deserved a steal

Inside the Flames | Calgary Herald — I’m going to come right out and say it: The Flames stole Thursday’s game against Ottawa. Finally. When you think of the number of times these redshirts have dominated visiting teams only to lose because they couldn’t score at clutch times, it’s nice to see the sheet start to balance. Ottawa is one scary hockey club. Great speed, move the puck quickly, generate quality scoring chances almost every time they hit the offensive zone. But the Flames got the job done and that’s all that really matters. Big tip of the hat to Miikka Kiprusoff for standing on his head in ...

Flames have no room for error in fight for playoff spot

Inside the Flames | Calgary Herald — Sixteen games to go, but as far as coach Brent Sutter is concerned the post season has already begun. If the Flames want a spot in the top eight, that’s the way it has to be. "I’m treating these games like they’re playoff games," said Sutter. "How we manage our days between games is like playoffs. We want to make sure we’re rested every night to play at their best, make sure they’re fresh. There can’t be any mistakes made by anybody right now." On a three game winning streak heading into tonight’s tilt against Ottawa, Sutter says t...

Flames luck is all that's changed

Inside the Flames | Calgary Herald — Geez, I don’t even know where to start today. Clearly the first question most people wonder about is why the turnaround, why are the Flames having success scoring now when they couldn’t put the puck in the ocean from the shore before? Well. coach Brent Sutter says nothing has changed, that this team has always had the green light offensively and that he remains steadfast in asking that they also remain responsible defensively. But captain Jarome Iginla is quick to add that the thought process has changed to where they’ve decided to just go out and play hard and not worry so ...

Almost enough for a smile from Brent Sutter

Inside the Flames | Calgary Herald — From Scott Cruickshank: Let's see. Four out of a possible four points on the two-city trip. A stellar win from the new backup. Continued goodness from his star starter. A goal from hard-luck Chris Higgins. The pairing of Robyn Regehr and Ian White going plus-four - each! - in Detroit. Crazy production from that fresh first line - 15 total scoring points in two dates from Jarome Iginla, Matt Stajan, Rene Bourque. A comeback victory in a (still) tough barn. And? A well-earned eighth slot on the Western Conference ladder. Why, it was enough to get a smile out of Brent Sutter. Almost. "We all...
