Worst coach in Flames history IMO. And it’s a strong list of candidates.
Don Hay was even worse, and was fired before even finishing his first season with the Flames. He had previously been fired after one full year coaching the Coyotes, so this was not an isolated opinion.
Greg Gilbert wasn't a whole lot better.

Senile Ron with no comment on how amazing that interview was- just went right back to business. In all fairness, Ron probably didn't know how to react, because he is used to monotone, emotionless post-game interviews from his idol Connor.

I pray to the hockey gods that we do not play down to the flames level and go behind early. Start strong and end strong please

For as awful as the Flames are they have some talent on their roster
Quote:
Let's not underestimate this team just cause they're the Flames. That's a team that can surprise ya. Let's take care of business Stars
Quote:
I swear to god this team better not come out of that locker room thinking this is an easy win, it’s an easy win if we crush them 8-0
Quote:
This SHOULD be an easy win, but it’s a trap game if there ever was one.
Quote:
This is a trap game if there ever was one.
Coleman and Kadri both always find a way to score on us, it feels like.
Pospisil is always a goon and could hurt someone.
Boys have to be on their toes and ready to go. Flames are a weaker team right now but the standings have never stopped them from stealing points from us.
Quote:
I love saying Pospisil.
Mostly because it’s how my speech impeded daughter said hospital for years lol
Quote:
man, it is really glaring how ####ing god awful this flames team is. so, naturally, stars might just lose this one for reasons
Quote:
Gully sure was frustrated coaching the Flames.
Quote:
I just want easy wins against bad teams why is that so hard for us lmao

We had better not get backup goalied.
Quote:
Props to Cooley. I’m amazed we didn’t score there
Quote:
Not cool Cooley
Quote:
Cooley came to play damn
Quote:
He’s needs to Cooley off
Quote:
Someone needs to tell Cooley to chill
Quote:
Best I can do is to tell him to cool it.
Quote:
Needs to cool off I think
Quote:
Another spare goalie looking like Patrick Roy
Quote:
This team just has such an uncanny way of making any goalie look like prime Brodeur
Quote:
OUICK, someone in the audience needs to distract Cooley somehow...
Quote:
We’re gonna get goalied aren’t we
Quote:
I’m cranky about this goalie situation
Quote:
bro, cooley can #### the #### off. he has been unreal

This is how Otter made Flames fans feel in '22

Monster Mikko
Quote:
Yikes Mikko. That might be a suspension
Quote:
Well. That's not my favorite hit.
Quote:
Great. Game misconduct. We can’t afford to lose more players
Quote:
I’ll usually defend our boys. That was a dumb hit.
Quote:
Somehow I don't think the department of player safety is gonna be so lenient with Rantanen after a second 5-and-game for boarding in the same week.
Quote:
Wow. Mikko has to get his #### together
Quote:
Absolute ####ing bull####. The hit on Duchene all I heard was he should have kept his head up. Now all of a sudden that's a penalty? That wasn't even boarding. Keep your ####ing head up, loser
Quote:
shoulda kept his head up. maybe don’t randomly stop and be oblivious to your surroundings and you won’t get popped
Scoronato with First Blood!

We hate scoring first this season

That was ####ing stupid

Stars look like they're just going through the motions tonight. Very flat.
Quote:
lol, so predictable with this ####ing team
Quote:
Flames just activated our trap card
Quote:
Brother, can the Flames like, not?
Quote:
lol we give one up to the worst power play in the league. smh
Quote:
I swear whenever our broadcast highlights a bad PP they score every time.
Quote:
Hintz is absolutely terrible. No effort. Lazy. Worst player on team now. Sit him for a few games. Embarrass his lazy butt
Quote:
My eyes are hurt after watching that period
Quote:
As I mentioned in other thread. Trap game. Oof!
Calgary has 6 wins and 16 loses.
Quote:
I love a good goalie battle.... just not against the worst team in the nhl against some of the hottest goal scorers in the league right now... Should be a 10-0 game not 0-1
Farabee with a tip
Quote:
Another bull#### call
Quote:
It's the start of the 3rd period. The players take the bench. All of the sudden the lights go out. The arena is dark. But only for an instant. The lights return. Is that an extra person on the Stars bench? It couldn't be. But it's true. There sits Matt Duchene geared up and ready to go.
Quote:
so, do ####ing refs in western canada just never want to call penalties on these teams? how the #### have they not won a cup?
Quote:
what the #### are we doing!? I guess gully told them we could drop this game with no issues...
Quote:
Very frustrating game
Quote:
what the #### was that?
Quote:
I’m so tired of not clearing pucks efficiently
Quote:
The Flames are doing this to them, the ####ing Flames. This is so sad
Quote:
At this rate, we’re going to bed early tonight
Quote:
okay, this is enough. this is unacceptable.
Quote:
There's a lot of...what do I call it, standing around in this game? Like they're all waiting for someone else to go for the puck...

So! Freaking! Frustrating! All of it.

…And now, the skills competition.

Wow. What a move by Kadri

Hintz. How not to do a shootout lol. My beer league have better moves than that.
Quote:
Never let Hintz do anything.
Quote:
Dog #### from Wyatt and Roope
Quote:
Lol roope just poops himself. Alright all good - secured the point against the worst team in the league
Quote:
This felt like a trap game. We lost 4-1 to the last place Preds last season in Bichsel’s debut
Quote:
I ####ing hate shootouts. I also hate that the refs can’t call OT square both directions.
Quote:
At least the refs can’t #### us in a shootout
Quote:
What a #### game to lose. Bottom feeder team too lol
Quote:
Flames clearing the bench to celebrate like they just won the cup. Lol
Quote:
Could we have hit those last to shots with our purse a little harder damn
Quote:
We should’ve just done empty net when we had 5 on 3

I was watching the game at the Grand Central bar in Okotoks. There was 4 TV's showing the game and on one of them the feed was close to 2 minutes behind the actual play. How does that happen???
Shocked we came away with 2 points given the 1:23 2 man advantage at the end of the game. Glad we beat the stars what a piece of #### Rantanen has turned into.
