#1 Goaltender

Flames didn't show up at 7:00 to play hockey, the Blues did. When the Flames finally work up and decided it was time to play it was too late. Missed out on two much needed points as the games in hand are slipping away.
They need to put it behind them and move on but my hopes for the post season have once again been tempered after starting to get very optimistic the past handful of games.
Whatever the case with the goalie situation, we are in big trouble if Kipper doesn't come back soon.

It's no wonder the goalies have struggled this year.

At least Keenan had a good PK.

Well, Iginla's line is in plus territory for the +/-. thats a good sign.
The team gets beat badly by contenders - its not even close. Not acceptable for a team trying to sell itself as "win now". The close losses or wins against the middle to lower end group of teams just obscures the realities here.

Flames wasting there home games. April flames are mostly on the road. Going o be tough.
Flames in February at home have only looked good when opposing team has played the night before. I am not sure if they are Jekyll and Hyde or really bad?

Also, Iginla's line went positive. Actually didn't do terribly as opposed to the rest.
So much falls on shotty goaltending though. (aside from a no-show effort through 20)
With a legitimate starter, you expect him to have had probably two of those.

People seem to forget that Kipper was having an awful season before he got injured. Him coming back may not be the saviour that you're hoping for. I certainly hope I'm wrong, but, you never know.

I think the Flames play better on the road anyways.

Irving sucks quite a bit, but not as much as Comeau does. What a horrible hockey player.
This team is not going to come close to making the playoffs.

Maybe not entirely but you can put God in goal for the Flames and they wonīt be a playoff team.
Itīs not about the goaltender.

The Blues defense makes him look good. So did we

The Blues gave up more chances then the Flames
bounces, lack of finish, goal tending
