Even if we try to look at things on paper, the fact that the Flames were 14 points better last year, largely with the same squads, makes it hard to defend a statement that NYI is "much better".

Wasn’t this you just a couple days ago?
You were under no obligation to defend the flames in that series of posts but you found a way to do it. This mentality needs to be checked and is probably why the flames were forced into a rebuild.

I mean that's a different matter. I was disputing the notion that the Islanders are "much better" than the Flames based on the known facts. I stand by that. not because the Flames are "much better" though. But because they are in about the same state. Neither are very good.
Your little obsession with me is getting weird.

Yes. A poster on a message boards mentality definitely drove the direction and outcome of a million dollar sports teams strategy and season.

It isn't going to work when we have an awful team. You have to let people give their opinions and rant, rather than tell everyone how they are actually wrong.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion!

Look at the way the whole team has played, it's like they got the green light to actually try and create offence. Play like that from now on for Christ Sakes and I will stop bitching about coaching. Let them loose.

Goood to see Parekh getting icetime and the green light. If you want to coach the kid he needs experience and the coaches need video to point out the finer points of play in the NHL.

They gave up 1 and had like 5 good scoring chances. Who fn cares, they get pumped when they play the way he has them normally playing. At least entertain me if you are going to get pumped every night.

You’re the one who replied to my post, not the other way around chief.
And look, you’re still defending it, despite the islanders moving up again today. Blind homerism to the point of delusion.

When was the last time Kadri go a shift? Not sure if I missed it, but feels like it’s been a moment or two.

The Flames have been rebuilding for 2 years now, biggest sell off of veterans for prospects in salary cap history.
