I wish they'd drafted Nichushkin instead of Monahan, at least they wouldnt have signed him to this anchor of a contract.

Ya i expected them to at least be right there fighting for a playoff spot. I remember Friedman or Hrudey saying on the radio they though the Flames would be the best team in Canada. I shouldn't have said "top in the division" lol

We need Wideman to draw in every now and then so that we can pointlessly move brodie from left to right to left to right...

Not sure why they didn't have the same thing to say about the Flames.
This post needs way more love.

Its looking like Nurse might have been a better pick.

Every time I think I'm being dramatically over the top in my worry about this I member I could always be worse.

Damn man, you're saying you would rather a first round pick was no longer in the NHL as opposed to Monahan because the whole team has started crappily?

I disagree. Just because Monahan hasn't started the season great doesn't mean he's not going to be the better player in the future. He's had three great season for us. In all three seasons he has had 20+ goals, including his rookie year. And I know the argument is made that he benefits from playing with Johnny but for the first year Gaudreau didn't join the team until April. I think his back injury forced him a couple steps behind.

The overtime session here with Gulutzan is pretty much a "your're a bad coach, here are examples... can you explain why?" segment.

I can see exactly why the Flames will keep GG around longer than they should. And probably why they hired him. He says all the right things, makes it sound sincere and convincing.

But talk is cheap. And execution is a completely different matter with this guy.

Not the biggest fan of Hamilton, but uhh... no.

Dougie has shown so much more at the NHL level.

Who was the poster arguing Monahan was a better player than McDavid at this point in their careers?
