Flames Bad
Ugggh
Flames have:
Bad PP
Bad PK
Bad OT
Bad Shootouts
Bad even strength play
But they’ve got some pretty good goalies so they’ll sniff the playoffs

Wolf is very clearly ROTY, because good lord do they need him to bail them out. Didn't deserve a point after that 3rd and didn't deserve a chance at a 2nd point after that OT.

Aside from Huberdeau, Kadri, Weegar, and Wolf, nobody on this team is showing up.

Deserved to lose that one. What a horrendous performance in the 3rd and overtime.
Left Wolf out to dry.
Ugly stuff.

That loss is on Huska. Brutal coaching.

Wolf stole us a point. We had no business being in yet another game.
Expected goals were 4-2. Deserve to win meter was 85% Canucks.
Wolf is unreal. The rest of the team is so bad.

I love Huska, but Huska needs to put the Sharangovich rehabilitation project on hold until next season. It’s simply not Sharangovich’s year, and Huska needs to stop putting Sharangovich in key situations, trying to get Sharangovich going. At this time of year, the Flames just need all the points.

Stopped playing in the third and OT.
Played passive and took no risks and it came back to bite them

I don't understand why Sharangovich is getting shifts in OT and is shooting before some other guys.
For a coach who seems to have his finger on the pulse of the team, I really don't get it why Hruska keeps trotting him out there.

Flames were full marks in the first 40 IMO.
The third and OT against a TIRED TEAM no less was unacceptable.
I love how this team routinely shows up for biggest games of the year.
Never pass up the opportunity to pass up an opportunity.

Thought Huberdeau and Kadri offset everything they did offensively with some #### work in the d-zone as well. Just not good enough in all 3 zones

If you don’t like the Flames losing huge games in a playoff race you don’t like Flames hockey.
Seriously, I think I could count on one hand the number of times this franchise has won a game like this in my lifetime. Great chance to put some distance between us and a team chasing and instead we’re tied.
Huberdeau was fantastic and so was Wolf. Third period was embarrassing and so was OT. This team is frustrating to watch.

Disgraceful effort after 40 minutes.
That simply can’t happen. Hard to be optimistic after that

#### sakes. We had every possible advantage to win. Back to back? Check. 3 days of rest? Check. A tired Canucks team coming off a loss? Check. And the flames find a way to #### it up again. What the #### was that third period? No killer instinct. In arguably the biggest game of the season, they sat and protected a 1 goal lead. If not for Wolf, this team is a basement dweller. God ####ing dammit.

The rest of the team is 3rd/4th line talent. It is what it is at this point.
If Wolf doesn't stand on his head, we are right there with the Sharks this year.

Because at least he can get a puck on goal?
