Flames get taken to the woodshed, thumped 9-1 by the Pens
I don’t get it. The team has shown it can hang with the best in the league, beating Nashville and Boston pretty easily. Then they throw up 3 games in a row where they look like a dumpster fire. The coach really needs to show how good he actually is and figure this out quickly. The team are notoriously slow starters so a record of 5-5-0 isn’t that terrible but they better right the ship quickly. Smith was hung out to dry tonight but even still, outside 2 games he has looked Jonas Hiller bad. Better hope Rittich continues his strong play or Treliving is on the hot seat to find a reliable goaltender. Use this asskicking as motivation, regroup and get ready for Saturday. Hopefully we can chalk this up to new coaching/systems/players and they go on extended winning streak after working the kinks out, as they have previously.
