Biggest problems facing the Flames right now?
1. Jacob Markstrom’s brutal play
2. Brad Treliving’s brutal roster management. Losing Valimaki for nothing while our defensive depth fell apart - picking Mackey over Valimaki was just dumb. Also, having a roster that night-in/night-out features 3 of Rooney, Lewis, Lucic and Ritchie is not acceptable depth.
3. Darryl Sutter - the team was off to a hot start, he shook up the lines and the team has been trash ever since. His lineup construction is pitiful. His player usage at various times of the game is grotesque.
I’ll say it again - if this team was actually playing who deserves to play, Phillips, Zary, and Pelletier would all be in the lineup while Lucic and Rooney wouldn’t be while one of Ritchie/Lewis would be the 13th forward.
They are not giving themselves a chance to win.
Tree and Sutter are better than this and need to be better.

Mackey outplayed him for over a year and makes less money
Wasn't a shocking decision
