Were you at the game Havoc?
I watched it on TV.
The first period stank up the place. CAlgary didn't get a shot on goal for 10 minutes. Calgary sucked so bad their lucky it was only 1-0. Turek played really well.
Second period was better, and i'm glad the powerplay got some goals, but remember we scored 3 goals on 3 2-man advantages. If I were a philly fan, that would have pissed me off. I think Philly were too good for us. Their too fast and have too much skill. If it haden't been for the penalties, we would ahve gotten killed.
Third period and this shows. Philly walked all over us. We deserved to lose. I know it sucks but its true. We only had one good period, and the only person who played a great game was Turek. The refs call all the obstruction penalties now casue thats what they were told to do. If the guy isn't on the puck you can't touch him. You ahve to keep your feet moving at all times. You can't block him from getting to the puck. Its really annoying with all the penlties, I agree, but if their gonna call them, they should call them all. In addition to the, Iginla should have gotten a penalty. He made no effort to stop when he ran into Chekanek. He just kept going. He wasn't pushed. So its pretty much iginlas fault we lost the game. I don't think refs should be calling penalties like that with 1:30 left, but Iginla should haev known better.
Drury sucked the first period. He gave the puck away in the second and they scored off that. Im glad Gelinas got moved up. I really like him. I'm glad he got a couple goals too.
Don't worry, its early in the season. Once the lines start to click, we can have 2 or 3 good scoring lines, and get Leopold back, I think we'll do well.
