Can Steve Pleau be promoted again please? We haven't fully realized this man's incompetence.

I don’t know what difference it makes where he’s from.

See ya in 3 years!!

Any offer on the table should be pulled.

Is that your question?

So you would sign Toffoli to a 4-6 year deal?
this is exactly the kind of thing we don't want done lol

Look who he is playing with there, the Flames might be slightly better had he stayed and the contract would be another bad one. Notice how his current team isn't extending him multiple years despite the hot start.

Next target: the Dallas Stars. A big 2 points to avoid. Hoping we see 2-7-1.

The Flames are being efficient in nuking their season. Their play is the only honest thing we’ve seen from the organization in quite some time. They are what they are on the ice, and they’re not hiding it at all.

Nazem looked like he cared at least.

I didn't mind their last two periods actually. Oilers got luckt on their 4th goal. They're just too inept in the o-zone.

This team is a f’n joke. I missed the game so just watched in high speed on the PVR. I stopped the FF as soon as the Flames looked like they might have been doing something that looked remotely like actual NHL hockey. I think I stopped it maybe 3 times aside from the actual goals, which were both pretty lucky to be honest.

Team as it is currently built is pathetic. Trade everyone.

[Joborule]

The TANK carries on!

Lose Flames lose! Would be nice to actually have a top 3 pick in the draft for the first time in franchise history. Probably explains why the franchise has been the epitome of mediocre for so long.

Thanks for the draft lottery points

Yep. Snake oil salesman.

It doesn’t matter where he’s from, the message would have been the same if he’s from Antarctica.

You continue to live in a world where the only trade they could have explored was this one, and the only alternative was sign him long term.

Why wasn’t Conroy patient?

Why did Conroy quickly execute a trade that was hyper focused on acquiring a playoff healthy scratch?

We’re consistent across the organization at least. Completely and utterly hopeless.

You forgot crappy scouts. If Button is still a scout he should be fired before sunrise.

johnny come lately to the conversation this poster said the Flames would have been better off KEEPING him

Like honestly Toffoli would probably have 4 points in this lineup right now, his value wouldn't be going up

Sure, but there’s no reason to mention it. Was he born on a Monday too?

Drafting has been pretty good imo

[Ashasx]

only 7/8th of the season left. tanking really isnt that bad

[VANFLAMESFAN]

I didn’t understand Hunt being on a top line, a power play unit and then the extra attacker with goalie pulled.

When Ruzicka comes back, Hunt is likely scratched. So all this Hunt opportunity makes even less sense.

I remember Geoff Ward did that with Ritchie one time.

Huska should not aspire to Geoff Ward vibes.

All of the definite pro Sutter guys had to go ASAP
The new focus is pure fun and ribbons

I was looking for descriptors, that's all I had to go on for the suck that is Yegor Sharangovich. Of course anyone who had seen him play could have told you that, and did the day the Flames traded for him.
