Probably a blessing in disguise.

Another 1 goal loss. I’m fine with it.

Keep talking trades, Conroy.

No elite talent, terrible PP. Not going to get you far in the NHL.
No problem on our end me thinks. Except maybe knowing the Flames organization on the whole isn't too quick on the whole tear down stuff. Would be nice if they just ripped the small bandaid off the gnashing axe wound already.

I for one would really like Cayden Lindstrom and would like them to win as many games as they need to so they can get him. Thx!

Sell. Rebuild. Do something other than whatever the F you've been doing for the past 30-odd years of futility.


The team is awful, even if occasionally entertaining. The culture is better and the guys are (were?) having "fun". Oh goody.

If Tanev and Markstrom get moved this team becomes atrocious.

Pretty disappointing result. Not much else to say. I will never, ever cheer for losses, but at this point, if they lose, whatever.

Can you imagine how bad they would be if they did not have a fun coach and kept going like last year. Zary and Pospisil would be lighting up the AHL while the Flames had Lucic and some other 37 year old character scrub taking up time in the top 6. Small blessings this year that we don’t have to watch senior citizens mail it in.

Oesterle will be top 4 soon for the people not paying attention

Huska is just trying to warm him up

Anyway, loss is positive at this point

Team don’t have the players to compete when it counts

I would sell Markstrom if I can along with the UFAs but I doubt there is a real market for him

The Flames have shown a lot of heart at times this season, but these last 3 home games - including one against their biggest rival - show that the vets have already checked out.

I predict they will lose to CBJ and beat CHI, setting the stage for Conroy to start cleaning house after the all star break.

These games have also been a reminder of how handcuffed the team will be by Huberdeau going forward. $10.5M in dead cap space. Has he even once scored a big clutch goal to seal a win for the Flames? Has he even once dominated a game. He’s a good complimentary player but that contract looks worse by the month.

Oilers on this winning streak and the incredibly crappy team that is the Flames may finally get me turn off the NHL until October

They're going to. I'm guessing the offers aren't great yet, so Conroy is waiting for something better. He'll wait until the TDL if he has to. No point in making a bad deal today just to make a deal.

He's not dumb. This team isn't good. Changes will happen sooner than later.

Don't disagree Scorp but some mock drafts have him going 2nd.

I don't think trades can be made during the break.
