Flames looked bad. So many mindless turnovers again. I've never seen a Flames team shoot themselves in the foot over and over again as much these guys do. Just beating themselves a lot of the time. How many times do we have to see the brainless turnovers before they figure it out. They must lead the league in turnovers? Almost every one ends up in our net. If we're gonna have success this season, this MUST be reduced. Seriously. This has happened far too many times already this season. Figure it out guys.
We've seen how good these guys can play! (Capitals game. Even the Avs game to a lesser extent ffs). We have a talented team, a talented defense. Lets start playing like it.

Not going to let them off the hook because it’s the first game back after a road trip. They got handled by a much better coached Leafs team.

I see 2 very similar teams but believe our coaching doesnt hold a flame to Babcock. They seemed to know where we would enter and broke everything up. We seemed to be holding a fire drill in our own zone playing the exact same style we would play every team.

If we had a real coach like Babcock the entire 4th line would be in the minors.

I wonder if they keep rifling the puck up the boards it will eventually work?
Pretty boring effort from the Flames. Top line shut down and that's all it really takes to beat them.

Taking a while to get to 5000

Possible injuries and the need for energy on that 4th line makes me wonder if a few call ups are coming.

This shouldnt be the case. There is way to much talent on this team but I believe we are way to predictable and when option A and B are taken, everyone seems to panic which leads to turnovers.
If not for Smiths outstanding performance in half the games he has played and above average to average in the other half, we are on the outside looking in. I understand the whole goalie is part of your team argument but if our goalie has this much of a impact to a team with this much talent, I have concerns.

This team is underachieving. Yes, they have a winning record but considering the defense corps, there’s no way they should be bottom third in the league in shots against and goals against per game. And to think this top 4 D was compared to Nashville’s….
I’ve been quite disappointed with the 3M line this season. Not such much for offensive production, but with the issues supporting the D in their own zone. Some of their uncharacteristic turnovers and poor decisions have left me shaking my head.

So why Brouwer and Lazar is keep playing while they do nothing good. Call a couple of guys from down. At least tgey will bring energy.

I'm just as embarrassed as I was during the Ottawa and Detroit blowouts. That effort was a joke.
