They had a good thing going. Why stop?

People want trades

What do you expect when you start trading your regulars?

Duehr will clear waivers. Time to do that.

Still have no idea what The Flames see in Oesterle.

Happy with Wolf and Solovyov.

Not so much the pending UFAs.

Wild are another team that can keep the Oilers out...biggest positive

Maybe the goaltending is not the key issue, that most here believed.

Confused by this comment. Like when a teammate slides headfirst into the net with the puck beneath him, you’re expecting a save?

Are you a math nerd? The numbers are all that matter?

That game was like me tonight. Started out half-drunk. Watched most of the first and fell asleep. Woke up when it was 4-1 for a bit, got a goal in and went back to snoozing.

Glad I didn't have to pay for it.

No effort. No skill. No attention to detail. And the Wild skated rings around them all night long from what I saw. So exciting. Blech.

The passing was particularly bad. Clear misses and pucks just smacking off sticks (I swear it sounded like they weren’t taped).

Play of the game was me calling the first Wild goal before the horn of doom.

[Infinit47]

That PP in the third was a big turning point. We had the momentum and pissed it away.

Turns out Marc Savard is a terrible PP coach. Who would have thought with his long history of success as a coach of professional hockey.

[TrentCrimmIndependent]

Wolf was good. Team in front not so much.

Bet he just continues to improve if they actually give him games.

Not sure Vladar has earned a start in the next game.

[getoverit]

Only thing good about this game is getting to see the wolf. And we were to have some of the best defence in the league. Man how many break aways or odd man rushes this team give up this year. Hard to watch game Just sell already and throw in Dube and Mange for sweeteners lol

Read the whole post. He’s saying something about save%

I must have missed something lol

[TrentCrimmIndependent]

We need someone competent to turn around this PP.

When you lose the special teams battle every night or tie it at best, it's hard to find consistent success.

[trackercowe]

Trade Vlader while you can still get a 7th for him. Anything is better than nothing... If Conroy waits too long we won't even get that.

Huska should forced them watch the first Mighty Ducks, how the kids played with eggs and passing with eggs.

Not sure how anyone can watch that game and say Wolf let in two bad goals.

But lets give Wolf 75 games and if he's still sub .900SV% after that then he's a bum.

They were throwing pucks away in their own end while they were being hemmed in. Need to stop playing catch the grenade. Very poor play as a unit in their own some. Then in the offensive zone they got selfish your point of being stripped of pucks while they had a clear pass As a unit they are not playing very well.

[Aarongavey]

Pretty relaxing season, if they win I am happy and if they lose I am happy.

Thought Wolf played well, no chance on either goal, made some good saves otherwise.

Rest of the team was bad. Mangiapane seems to have forgotten how to handle the puck. Anderson passing up a shot down Main Street after a nice pass from Huberdeau can’t happen. Not really sure who looked good out there tonight.

Yes, send Oesterle back down and bring DeSimone back up.
