So this is kind of funny. The Coyotes Flames match is so boring and ultimately awful that the conversation turns to the Sabres and Isles (and not even dignifying the Oil)

I had a feeling that tonight's game would be rough. For one, the Coyotes are a team coached in a way that will prey on weakness but never ultimately and truly succeed. Sad because this is the crap that frustrates the Flames and results in a terrible beating where they go out with a whimper

Secondly, after the win over the Avs, Cammalleri's post game interview was among the worst I have seen. He spent more time looking down the hall and at his feet than at the camera. When Millions suggested that perhaps the offensive breakout was a positive development, he pretty much said 'hopefully' with defeatist attitude rather than exhibiting his gregariousness. I have never seen a guy with such a loser face after scoring a game winner. Ironic after his comments that left Montreal forced to dispatch him. Some leader.

I say, the team after Burke turfed Feaster is a bunch of guys that feel they were given up on and are now looking over their shoulders. Feaster's track record here aside, he was developing a certain atmosphere that acknowledged the rebuild and gave comfort, but Burke undermined everyone's confidence whether he expected to or not.

Start with a small roster you need to ask to overachieve. Tell a team (and their fans) they are too small and then all of the 5'6"-5'11", <190 pound guys who were empowered have been snipped.

4 shutouts in 6 games? Pretty darn close to rock bottom here. Amazing how much worse a team that is already bad on paper can be when they are demoralized.

Cammi is putting in a professional enough effort but if he is not flu ridden he is checked out and needs to go. We are right at the point we were last year where Iggy was going to go and the players are waiting for the next shoe to drop.
