I have been steering clear of this place due to the negativity but the constant lynching of Monahan is ridiculous.
You basically are saying we lost because of Monahan. Every member of the Flames 70+ point club was brutal in the playoffs.
Maybe it is time for a new narrative? Peters moves on from the Hurricanes and the team is poised for the conference finals when he couldn’t get his team ready and they got spanked by a team 17pts lower in the standings than them?
Lots of blame to go around for this team failing. The Flames haven’t had a 82 point center in over 2 decades and it has been a steady 2 weeks of many people trying to run him out of town.

well, maybe not every member... Bennett and Smith were really good and i think Valimaki/Andersson were pretty decent too.
the disappointment comes from having high expectations of your core players, the guys that are getting paid the most money... unfortunately, Monny, Gaudreau and Gio carry that weight of those expectations...
i agree that singling out Monny is pretty unfair... Almost everyone didn't perform to the level people expected them to, including the coaches.
