This post is simply awful. Why bother watching or following them?

This team is mike Keenan bad defensively. I don't even think it's the coaching this time around. Mike Keenan had Iginla in his prime cammy breaking out glencross breaking out he had the stars align offensively that season to compensate for the horrific defensive play.

This time around those same guys look gassed. It seems they don't care about the defensive side at all. Not 1 forward cares to put in the effort required to win a game 2-1, or hold a 3-0 lead.

Hartley clearly looks agitated he tried being the nice guy, but as many coaches have found out this is one of the most frustrating teams to coach in the NHL and they just aren't good enough anymore either.

I've never wished this team to lose but I really hope that they start turning up the suck. The only way management and ownership will see that the philosophy that they have been following for the past years IS NOT WORKING, is to turn into the worst team in hockey.

Unfortunately, knowing this team they will dominate the Canucks, all will be rosey in the eyes of management and the circus act will continue

Well I'm hoping against reality for a Flames win. I'm kind of worried about putting Taylor in as I feel there is a high likelihood he gets shelled. Hopefully I'm wrong and he plays lights out. 4-3 Flames

Feel bad for Taylor but here is hoping he does well and the team in front remembers the address of the Saddledome.

Travelling day of game after a game the night before spells bad news. If you can't win this one then things are worse than originally thought.

Oh man...Quick was exposed last night and now poor Taylor. Not going to be a good night to be a Flames fan.

Why not go with Joey Mac? Gives you the best chance to win. They haven't played in 3 days.

So let me get this straight; you've just used a goalie who played 5 games in 8 nights, and hadn't played that many in almost a calender year due to injury, ignoring the backup that whole time.

And now, after a 3 day rest, you go with the backup?

McDonald was gassed the last game, given the rebound control, and legitimately so; Kiprusoff wouldn't have played 5 games in 8 nights...why not use Taylor then instead of now after a break?

I think the Flames keep it close, and Taylor plays ok, but then a questionable Taylor goal at the wrong time sinks the team.

Any chance the game could be cancelled? Probably would be the best thing for the flames right now.

Canucks are still in Vancouver:
