How is Mikael Backlund handling captain duties. Not a great start on that front either. Not surprised at all though.

Darryl Sutter should have won coach of the year last season for having this group anywhere near the playoffs

4 stars in the offensive zone with only the two defense covering and Lindholm floating around the blue line waiting for a pass, what happened to this guy?

I like Tanev, but he’s having a tough game. Collapses to screen Marky and then attempts to cover 2 guys in the slot but has backed up too far to prevent the 4th goal.

A retired Iginla would have sparked the team with a scrap and a goal at least.

Why are they at a different table/set up every intermission?

Are they going to be riding bicycles in Holland countryside next time?

Tanev fell off the age cliff after 2022.

Iggy would be better than 90% of this roster today… probably have a higher GAF meter too…

It’s easy to point fingers at one or two high profile guys but the whole team was beat in that period. Dallas just played better.

Need to draft Jarome's son just for the off chance that he's half the player he was.

He realizes if nobody else cares why should he. Just waiting for a trade to a real team now.

What a horrible feeling it is being a Flames fan. We will be stuck in mediocrity indefinitely.
Gaudreau would have been a bad deal

They should bring in Theo Fleury to show how far off the deep end you can fall in retirement to get these guys appreciating their time in the show a bit more.

That 2nd Dallas goal can't go it. Regardless of some of the big saves earlier a top goalie makes those saves and then that squeaker too.
