Disastrous period where the team completely melted down in the defensive zone. Hartley with some awful coaching - needed a timeout after the second goal and idiotically puts the fourth line out late in the second period which allowed Vigneault to counter with the top line. Simply unacceptable because that's the ball game now.

Flames top two lines all no-shows tonight and that's the difference.

The Glencross-Tanguay-Iginla line with the rotating center down low is failing MISERABLY getting victimized every single time out. The GM needs to do his job and get some centers onto this team. You can't just turn a winger into a center and in such a short amount of time - pretty naive by the organization to think this experiment could have worked.

Comeau is completely useless as an offensive player. He could have made this a 2-0 game on a glorious chance and blew it.

Irving has played well. Brodie has been by far the Flames best player. Very very disappointed with the level of engagement from the top players tonight.
