Geez we are all over the place, cannot string a couple of passes together, get out of our own end without giving it straight back. Frustrating to watch.

It was 3-2 Flames the last time I checked the score! This is the most frustrating Flames team in years.

I'm a big Ortio supporter, but he looks tentative and unconfident out there.

I haven't noticed Frolik today, would be nice if he would get going.

If you think you can't stop what you can't see then you have no idea what you're talking about. This isn't reflex goaltending, it's positioning and battling for the top of the crease. Standing on your goal line is a great way to make the net seem wide open.

He had plenty of time to be in position but wasn't. It was terrible goaltending.

Jooris played it terribly too.

It does seem like Ortio gets put into a tire fire more often then not.

Actually, goaltenders often save pucks they don't see when they're positionally sound.

In the instance of Hiller, when you're consistently down early and on your knees 98% of the time, you're not giving yourself much of a chance to stop anything more than a foot off of the ice.

I have a hard time understanding the number of Calgary Flames goaltender apologists on CP. They need to be better, plain and simple.

Let him start against Minnesota. Give him a fighting chance.
