I honestly thought the flames would challenge for top spot in the division when they announced the Markstrom signing. I wasn’t wearing my rose colored glasses at the time.
The players deserve as much or more of the credit for the disaster that was the 2021 season. They are coach killers.
Not his fault, but his problem that the following didn’t perform:
- monahan
- gaudreau half season
- tkachuk
- anderson
- valimaki
If we’re really being honest I’d point the finger in their direction.

Treliving probably won’t get the boot.
Said it before, but the Flames are just coming off a season with 0 gate or concession revenues. Treliving has two years left on his deal. I would be very surprised if the Flames cut ties with Treliving, paid his remaining salary and hired a replacement to pay as well.
Far more likely scenario is Treliving gets this offseason and next year to correct course. If the Flames miss the playoffs, or don’t show marked improvement, then the conversation become a lot more realistic in my mind.
