Calary just wants to keep it safe. Smith. Oh, what a play. And a big stop by [ __ ] Smith 
trying to go five here. Akuli does the shuffle, gets the back leg to come across

in play, get it back to the point, then plant himself in front off the 
boards. And there’s the back hand waist high off the boards. off the net and 
then stone off Devin Coolie’s back and in tried to tip it on the way by. It’s off the side 
of the net and then you can see he just bats it and it hits Kulie and 130 seconds left. How soon 
do you send him right now? And you’re right, Schmid leaves the net. [ __ ] Oh, he was 
playing for it with plenty of traffic. Back one with a skate stone centered right 
on goal. Kie a big save to keep it out on Barb. Coming back deep on this one. Good save 
on the back hand by Kulie. Can’t control it. Little backhand. He’s in perfect position to 
make the save. Traffic in front. Shoots. that deflected line towards the goal. [ __ ] to stop. 
Puck still loose and Deon Culie will cover up. Here’s one that’s tipped a couple of times on 
the way in. And a bouncing puck will lose to Flames have their chance to get it out. Coleman 
failed the first time in desperation. Here comes anyway. Richer coming back and couldn’t get 
to Hubal. Hub just out musled him. Got position getting the puck out. They have
