There have been many subtle but obvious hints towards getting a good player in the 2015 draft.

I love it every time they show Eakins crossing out a play on the white board...

Oiler fans need to organize a jersey tossing night. Show up, drop the opening puck, flood the ice with jerseys and then walk out. And even that might not be enough to break through the delusional Mac T/Lowe/Katz trifecta. Frankly they should stop building the arena, let Katz move to Seattle and get an expansion franchise. They are dead as long as he owns them.

This makes me so thankful for our upper management currently running the Flames.

Reid Wilkins from CHED. (basically) "what growth have you seen from Eakins"

CM- He's a sharp guy. Very sought after guy 18 months ago.
Good role model. Passionate about the game.
Our team is evolving

Hoping to get hired by the Oilers?

This is just amazing. It's not the coaches, because they've all delivered the same message. It's not the players because they hold each other accountable.

Growth. Evolving. Progress. Process. 11 straight.

Reporter asks about Ference basically calling out the team/core.

MacT: It's an emotional game, especially the Phoenix game.

Sorry, MacT, Ference wasn't talking about one game, he's frustrated about the entire organization.

"I think the game you are referring to is the Pheonix game"

Erm, no. He was talking about the Arizona game. No wonder they are losing when they get such basics right. Media pundits is one thing, but a GM not getting a name right just shows how incompetent he is.

Being beaten by "more veteran" teams. Like when Tobias Reider scored two shorties in one shift?

It's almost like he called a press conference...didn't predict any of the questions that were going to be asked.. and therefore didn't have answers for these obvious questions ready beforehand.

Now he's blaming their opposition for not making the same mistakes that the Oilers are making. That's amazing.

There is only one answer to this press conference, McT must be secretly on the Flames payroll.


There is no way he can really believe this garbage.
