It got close, but man, just when we think things are starting to look up for the Flames, they lay a doody on our faces with a game like that.
MAN, what a frustrating team.

Ward is not a head coach. What are the assistants doing as well? Do they not know what a timeout is? that they have it? wake up...

Gotta win tomorrow to make this a pretty good road trip still.

Bennett and Lucic are not going to help you tie the goddamn game.

Why throw away that opportunity after making it 4-3? Never mind the lack of a timeout.

Geoff, you're an idiot.

This has not been a good season as a Flames fan, but I'm glad they're at least providing entertaining games again.

Not sure how Ward doesn't take a timeout and come back with the top line. Also, that should have been an intentional offside with a faceoff in the attacking zone to close out the game.

I ask again as I did in the GT, what does Ward actually do? That's TWICE in the game he should've called a timeout. He knows they exist right?

He's really a burden for the team. At least he finally got Bennett back with Dube.

I have seen more than enough of the Geoff Ward experiment.

Played hard against a tough team, but man we gave up a lot of grade A chances.

I had to do a cartoonesque head shake and triple take when I didn’t see the top line out there. What the hell just happened!?

Lightning were the better team but the Flames didn't embarrass themselves as it was special teams that let them down. Ward seems hell bent on taking himself out of the running to coach this team next season. His player deployment at times is as clueless as I have seen from any coach.

Brad Tre, look at Tempa and you learn how to build a winning team. By the way, spend some money to get a top 6 winger. Your current first line is not going to cut it.

Sure, we lost by 1 and many will consider that a small victory, but the Lightning totally dominated us that game.

The Flames were incredibly sloppy, had awful positioning, and couldn't make a pass to save their lives the majority of the game.

Also, Ward is as braindead as coached come

GT about to get locked, so I'll ask here: can anyone explain how that's not an intentional offside?
