Fun game. It is never bad laying the boots to the Flames but even more fun when they had been riding high on the coaching change.

Good games from a lot of players but guys like Kahun and Bear has some of their best games of the season.
Larsson has been better lately and that could make a huge difference come playoff time.


Was impressed at Larsson's control near the end of the game where he was engaged with a fLame in the corner and Turtle came in and did one of his blind side jumping hits into his back. Fortunately Larsson wasn't hurt but I had to chuckle at the annoyed look on his face after him turning and seeing who it was.


Turtle's lack of production this year is pretty well documented and I think it is moments like this that keep him from playing well.
A lot of pest type players need the rivalry, hatred, whatever to be motivated and play well. Any time you watch him play these days most teams give him that kind of look and it takes the air of his tires.
He reminds me so much of Sean Avery right down to the "please punch me" face. Just like Avery the more teams ignore him or shrug off his BS the worse he will play.


It also seems as though when he’s in tight he doesn’t just wrist the puck on net, he tries that stupid between the legs crap that he managed to score on once last season. I noticed it twice in a game earlier in the season and once last night. He’s a hot dog.

I admittedly thought Sutter would bring out the mega pest in him and get him contributing on the scoresheet but he seems to be one that didn’t play with the ‘new coach bump’. He must hate being challenged or something.


I had to laugh when Hrudey indicated that was his trademark play, like he's potted 20 that way.


No coincidence that Turtle's lack of production comes during a season where he's playing the same six teams 9 or 10 times...If he plays like he did the first few games of the season the entire season, he would not make it through. Someone would stab him with their skate. He can't be too much of a prick when he knows that he's got to face these guys again the next day, or at worst, the next week.

But he (Belanger)'s as soft as room temp. margarine.

Turris in the BOA will be like an ice cube in the Sahara.
