Kadri casually clearing the puck for Columbus in the final minute with no pressure, Huberdeau hanging out in the abyss. fun fun fun

Not a horrendous game, but man. You'd hope they could get at least a point from Columbus.
This team seriously needs a real game breaking offensive talent.

The system makes no difference. This team can’t finish.

What's to discuss after 5 games?
This team is worse than last year.

Big contracts, no big talent.
Don’t have a Fleury or an Iginla to provide any excitement.
The dullest team this franchise has ever iced.

Taking a while to get to 5000

2nd game of a B2B where the night before they played with a ton of jam. I expect a better (rested) effort against Detroit (on their own B2B) and a win.

GOAT!

Honestly, it just feels kinda like all they really wanted was to keep playing the same way they were but without Sutter yelling at them for it.

I don’t know if they are worse but nothing so far to think that they are or will be better.

Back to back games on the road?
Home team rested?
Not as easy as it looks.

It still looks like the old coach was correct in his assessment of this team having no game breakers. On the plus side at least this year they have goaltending so far but they are still giving up tons of high danger chances that many attributed to the last coaches system. Hopefully they clean that up as they get used to the zone defence but I'm worried it's a personnel issue.

Two things can be true at once
1. The team lacks gamebreaking talent
2. Sutter was toxic and deserved to be let go

Thought we played well enough to win but you have to finish your chances especially in close.
Ruzicka with two massive misses. Mangiapane fires one wide. Kadri misses the net.
These are guys who have scored before just whiffing on easy goals.
Andersson and Backlund with rough games. Andersson can keep plays alive but after that's he's been pretty bad.

No finish. Plain and simple.
There isn't one "goal scorer" on this team. Toffoli is gone and Gaudreau/Tkachuk making guys goal scorers is also gone. It's just a whole lot of puck possession and harmless shots.

Markstrom did all he could do. He’s been flames best player to start the season.

A game like tonight shows how much this team is missing a true game breaker. If they had this roster but could use $17.5M on 2 different players than Huberdeau and Kadri this could be a top team.

I'm not going to catastrophize. Not a great game, hot goalie, slow tired play. Good effort from Kadri, good game from Marky. Bad game from many. On to the next.
