    CAN THEY WIN 2 IN A ROW??? PLEASE HOCKEY GODS, FORGIVE US FOR PUTTING A SPELL ON OTTER

  2. Straight-Plate-5256

    They’ll break the curse and win 2 in a row in Vegas for the SOLE purpose of stringing us along with hope until the very end before they crush it

  3. CaptinDerpI

    We’ve never won a game in Vegas…

    Edit: this bot was banned in the subreddit I discovered it so just wanted to see if it worked or not

  5. tristan1616

    Why do I have a horrible feeling that we used up all of our offense last night

  6. Less-Ad-1327

    Vegas isn’t as deep as they have been. With Mark stone out and on their 3rd string goalie they don’t feel nearly as dangerous. Flames can definitely capitalize and start stringing a couple W’s together.

  7. Bigasspikachu

    Feeling strangely confident about this game

  8. LeadershipAmazing875

    Alright copium inhaled, Huberdeau didn’t score last night because he was saving his energy to finally become the superstar we need and score 3 tonight

  9. ripyungdaggerdick

    Tough stretch of games coming up, this is really now or never

  10. BeerLeagueSpode

    Flams could beat these guys defensively. But since they normally can’t seem to score, it’s going to be interesting

  11. Last game I hit my lowest point of total apathy and disappointment with this team in the second period that lasted until Pelletier / duehr in the third rekindled my optimism for this team. I am ready to be hurt again by this team.

  12. jessemadnote

    Anyone else feel like switching Huberdeau and Dube would make sense?

  13. jonos360

    Expecting a win since Vegas isn’t a basement team

  14. MonkeySailor

    So the Capitals are selling and they’re only 2 points out of a playoff spot.

    Refreshing to see that kind of long term thinking, vision and courage
