The Flames are scoring shorthanded goals at an alarming rate

We did it, folks! We’ve made it to the break, and because we here at Matchsticks and Gasoline are dedicated to our craft and love you a whole bunch, we’re here to deliver you some sweet, sweet bye-week content. And we’re going to be talking about what’s almost certainly everybody’s favorite hockey game happening: killing penalties.

Okay, okay, maybe that’s a bit of an overstatement. Maybe watching your team kill penalties isn’t so much a joy as it is an “eyes glued to the screen, chewing nails, riddled with anxiety” type of experience, but it’s still worth talking about.
