The Flames are missing Monahan due to injury and our coach prefers to give Byron Froese and Josh Leivo 7 shifts to Bennett's 0 in the 3rd period.

We heard after the loss to Dallas that the Flames players were apparently extra disappointed to lose the series because they believed they had cost Geoff Ward the coaching job, as they really liked him. Maybe that should have been the first sign that Geoff Ward is not the right coach for this team?! Why are we giving this team a coach that makes it fun and easy for them but doesn't seem to make them better?

And I've been generally fine with Ward up until recently. I'm also fully aware given the bizarre circumstances of this season that a coaching change is extremely unlikely.

But jesus ####, Gerard Gallant and Bruce Boudreau are both looking like no-brainers at this point.
