Going there constantly waters down the meaning of "best" after a while.
I am positive there are faster shots than Draisaitl's.
Compliment (its a fast shot, hard to stop!), but make them earn the title of best this or that. You're right though, that's why their fans are genuinely confused when they fall flat on their faces, they're fed BS constantly and are gaslit by the media game to game. You would guess the glass is 9/10ths full based on the commentary each game even though they're below .500.
I'm kind of glad the media gives the Flames a rough ride a lot of times, because it keeps us in check and probably motivates individual players when they're singled out.
#### being entitled. That's how you end up with a 2 man team with no defense or goaltending that's made the playoffs in 1/14 years.

I swung by the Edmonton reporters on twitter after the game, they're all declaring that Smith is the answer and how awesome he's going to be, and I'm like dude, its the Sens, its like playing the Southpark Peewee's you'd better win and going away, just like with the Nucks. Edmonton's got a sweet schedule to start, but they're going to get their heads caved in when the competition stiffens and Smith isn't the answer and Koskinen is committed and they have no more goalies etc for SKINNNER and his Steamed Hams skill set.
