Yeah, the tools are there, but he just doesn't seem to get it. He had a lot of injuries and didn't play a lot over the last few yeas, so I was willing to cut hit a fair bit of slack, but he's been here a year now, and he isn't making any progress.
He's under contract for another year, but I think some guys are going to blow by him on the depth charts. And if Conroy picks up a Dman at the deadline, he's probably munching popcorn for the rest of the year.
I feel like every time we play Calgary, we get the worst officiating and at least one goal/no-goal challenge. Oh, and also lose to Dan Vladar.
Edit.. yep. Big Dan V, a rather run of the mill GK, is now 6-1-1 against us.
Quote:
Can't imagine we don't get Vladar tonight.

"[Calgary] is even worse in back to backs"
We haven't won a single one, how is that possible?

Hope someone puts popazit through the glass

Of course it’s pospisil ####ing always the one you expect
Quote:
authentic martin pooppisil moment
Quote:
He’s already being a dick.
Quote:
Looked like a dirty hit by Poposil. Shocked.
Quote:
of course it was that piece of #### martin pospisil :/
Quote:
I loathe that man
Quote:
I think that is the most disgusting thing I’ve ever heard John say….. That Pospisil got his first goal at CPA.
Quote:
piss missile
Quote:
#### Pospisil. Piece of garbage needs to be taken out
Quote:
i hope someone bashes pospisil’s skull in tonight #### his “concussions”
Quote:
i would love to see someone #### up popsicle (i dont care to figure out the correct spelling)
Quote:
We should be booing popsicles the way we boo Makar. More than we should boo Makar if we are being honest.
Quote:
I never understood the booing of Makar after the series anyways. Tyler Myers and Pospisil should be bood until they retire.
Challenge Accepted (Again!)
Quote:
My wife said “don't you dare take this from us you bald headed bitch” referring to calgarys coach
Quote:
it’s as 50:50 as it gets. I figured it would get called. It falls within what I would say is inference, as small as it was.
Quote:
Looks like a good goal. So it's probably coming back
Quote:
Why does Calgary always challenge with Goalie interference. It seems every game they play with Kraken. Maybe it’s just me.
Quote:
We seem to get more goals taken away than any other team. That’s perfectly legal one game and not the next. Lack of consistent officiating is killing the NHL.
Quote:
Every goal tender interference is a ####ing coin flip who knows man
Quote:
So wait can you just loop your stick around an opposing players skate and any goals don't count? Excuse me?
Quote:
Earlier this year a goalie stuck his face in Yanni's ass to get the call.
Quote:
BRAH IT WAS HIS OWN GUY INTERFERING #### OFFF
Quote:
This is some doodoo reffing here and I am no longer interested in watching. The Kraken aren't playing well either so that isn't helping things
Quote:
Shout out to whoever booed so loud that it was the only sound audible on the broadcast for a second
Quote:
if this works, they’ll give up a goal within 30 seconds.
Holding Out for a Hero
Quote:
I dunno about Boeing as a "hero"
Quote:
Boeing? Hero? Now, in the year of our lord 2025?
Quote:
Boeing a hero? I’d probably pump the brakes on that
Quote:
Brakes aren't working
Quote:
Piper blink twice if you are being forced to say niceties about Boeing
Quote:
Boeing the hero of the deep? I remember when it was about people and Tony orgs rather than multi billion dollar companies that extort tax breaks from government for threat of leaving and also decimates jobs and safety in the search of higher profits while paying an atrocious CEO a huge number of multiples of the average wage warmer at the company.
A Song of Ice and Fire
Quote:
Anyone else think it’s ironic that a guy with the last name frost plays on a team called the flames?
Quote:
This team is everyones first i swear
Quote:
Well, time for a smoke
Quote:
What a bizarre game this has been.
Quote:
I’m watching the flames broadcast, because Sportsnet, and they’re interviewing Craig Conroy, the flames GM, and he opened with “we got a lot of breaks”, haha. I do think that Frost/Farabee trade was a good one for them. That’s the type of trade I want to Francis pull off. Get some more 23-25 year olds in the line up.
Quote:
Morgan Frost looks like he wears Nike highlighter socks and shorts as an adult.
Quote:
Worth noting again Flames are on a back to back here..we SHOULD dominate the third on conditioning alone
Quote:
Jesus ####ing christ guys
Quote:
i was like “no why are you stopping?!?!?”
YEGOOOOOOOOOR
Quote:
So stupid. Now they're shorthanded, and Calgary will take Pachal for McCann all day long.
But hey sure lets discourage one of the cooler things aobut hockey, legal open ice hits, by fighting about it all the time. So. So. Dumb.
Sharangovich just skates right by everybody...
Quote:
Well lets hope Calgary starts really feeling those tired legs here soon. Seattle clearly needs the help
Quote:
Holy #### Joey do not do that
Quote:
Not many yikes from Joey, that one was a yikes though.
Quote:
Wait but they scored on the delayed penalty, the #### are we on the pk for. Am I misunderstanding a rule here?
Quote:
Welp from 1-0 to 0 - 2 and shorthanded sucks
Also I think I'm done with Oleksiak
Challenge Not Accepted
Quote:
Okay so if we lose this challenge is it then 5 on 3 lol?
Quote:
Might as well challenge. Calgary spams interference all the time
Quote:
Like a pokemon trainer
Quote:
these referees are so incompetent that they’re about to be nominated to trumps cabinet
Quote:
If this isn't pulled back, then someone needs to seriously look at these refs
Quote:
If this isn’t called goalie interference I will throw a fit
Quote:
Some say they're still playing the first period to this day
Quote:
Our goal gets called back for interferenc They both drop their gloves but WE get the double minor somehow. They get a goal during a delayed penalty and that someone gave them ANOTHER powerplay?
The refs have decided who they want to win this game and it isn't us
Quote:
WHAT THE ACTUAL #### TORONTO
Quote:
I'm imagining any conversation in Toronto right now is "#### em...they're American." lol
Quote:
EXTRA BIG BOOOOOOO
Quote:
#### these ####ing refs
Quote:
OH #### OFFFFFFFFF what has seattle done to toronto situation room huh
Quote:
Is calgary the cheifs of the nhl like damn
Quote:
Yo, I must have the schedule totally backwards. I thought we were playing the Flames, not the refs
Quote:
the more i understand hockey finally the more i find myself screaming at my tv like stop screwing with my boys
Quote:
so like there was one ref doing all the announcing and then he kept being booed and he forgot to turn on his mic for an announcement and got booed even more and i think it rattled him so bad that he made the other dude announce seattles challenge wasn’t accepted
so imo fans got to him and i hope he loses sleep over it
Huberdeau’s One-Timer
Quote:
referees girlfriend left him for somebody in seattle and he’s here to wage war on the city
Quote:
The #### is this officiating?
Quote:
McCann's face looks like he's just waiting for the bus
Quote:
If they don’t call that back the zebras are Calgary stans tonight they might as well just brawl
Quote:
The impact of the stick on stick caused Joey to miss the puck, but he didn’t have a good enough handle on that. And then… we give up another goal in the 5-3. Ugh. Ugly game.
Quote:
I usually don't blame referring for the outcome of a game, but the absolute cluster#### of referring in this game (especially in the first period) definitely changed the whole dynamic of this game.
Quote:
Oh, this looks like it is going to be a long night.
Quote:
Going to be interesting in the Kraken locker room during intermission
Quote:
I was going to go to tonight’s game last minute.
Glad I didn’t.
Quote:
Just a brutal period all around. No excuses. That was awful.
Quote:
Honestly, this...
We wouldnt be talking about whether Daccord was interfered with or not had anyone at all done a single thing to impede Sharangovich from blowing right past everybody in on goal.
Quote:
uhh there might be a riot at cpa tonight lol
Quote:
When it comes to unquestionable goals, Kraken won 2-1. Just saying.
Quote:
Replay clearly shows the Flames player grab Wrights stick and pull it up into his own face. This game was ####ed
Quote:
refs had the moneyline on calgary winning ig…. #### this bull#### officiating
Quote:
Farabee why would you skate into Shane’s stick like that???
Good game boys! The refs stole that one
Quote:
Well ####. #### the refs.
Oh, so that’s what it feels like
Quote:
I honestly believe the eastern media thinks we suck because the Oilers always play bad against Toronto, I don't get it. The Oilers record in the McDavid era against the Leafs is brutal.
Quote:
That broadcast made me feel like the whole country against us
Quote:
What a nice, totally unbiased broadcast that was.
Quote:
So many things about that game pissed me off.
Going down 0-3 in the first
The Skinner chants in our own ####ing barn
That ####ing offside review
Woll ending the game with a highlight reel save
The knowledge that SportsNet and TSN are gonna spend the next week talking #### about the Oilers cuz the ####ing Leafs beat them
Ugh.
Quote:
Whatever this team is doing pregame, they need to do something else because we're dog#### in the first every. Single. Night.
Quote:
It's aggravating at this point. Imagine if they're this dog#### in the first during the playoffs. That's just asking for an early exit.
Quote:
I think we have the record for going down 3-0 in the first period the most
Quote:
I need to stop watching this team for a week or so before I break anything expensive.

Utterly dominant night for Frost, Pospisil, and Sharangovich (who is maybe the least deserved Flames whipping boy this site has ever chosen)
Sharangovich was never a whipping boy. He's a guy that struggled, look invisible at times, and took criticism for it
