Boy the power play is really, really struggling. Team would almost be better off taking a coincidental penalty whenever the opposition does to they can play 4 on 4.

So he fits right in with the first unit. Awful passing by the first unit.

Killer instinct means you step on the throat of a team on a five game losing streak.

Top teams do that.

It's crazy how few passes are connecting today. Everyone is half a step ahead or behind. Guess it's just one of those games.

Bad game. Flames look sluggish, just forcing plays that aren't there.

Flames can't seem to complete a play and are being out-forechecked all over the ice. Not what I'm used to watching.

Flames making the Flyers look like world beaters, full marks to them for not rolling over but the Flames are playing like trash today.

Lucky for the Flames, they won't have to face the Flyers nor the Blues in the playoffs...

Detroit and Montreal would always get away with murder, other teams, not so much. And the bias has just been more pronounced since the Wideman incident.

Other teams may have rough calls like 1-2 / game, Calgary more like 1-2 / period. Fans all ubiquitous in their complaining because of bad calls all around, Calgary just gets more than usual. Bias.
Please. Wideman has absolutely nothing to do with how the refs call present-day Flames games. Actually, he had nothing to do with how they called games the year that incident happened.
