What happened to that team that showed up in Chicago? That team was hitting and skating and most of all trying! That's all I ask is some effort not a sunday skate.

Feaster is a great talker and his new coach is the same way. Very little in terms of actual results from this organization in nearly a decade. But at least Feaster gives a good interview. A horribly constructed hockey team.

Macdonald is giving this team a chance to win. Flames doing nothing to win.

The only player that isn't embarrassing themselves tonight is Joey macdonald... And maybe iginla.. This team can't even figure out how to disrupt a cycle... Keys to victory for the flames was to use their fleetness to combat la's size but how do u combat a team that is skating harder and faster and is significantly larger... The compete level is piss poor right now

It's time to move Stajan back with the czechs. Horak isn't 2nd line material.

I disagree.

I think they are trying really hard to get down by more than that.

Its because MacDonald painted over the Red Wings winged wheel on his mask since the last game.

I can't wait till Tanguay is off this team. Pretty useless player at this stage.

Iginla has been tremendous in spite of his useless linemates.

This is what's really bothered me over these last few games. Earlier in the season the Flames were actually using speed to gain the zone and maintaining posession. But lately they've looked more like the Flames of the last three seasons. They're not skating, and the effort required to win puck battles is just not there. So unbelievably frustrating.

Or....if you don't mind it doesn't matter.

Me neither, I predicted 13th place this year. The Flames need teams to come into the dome on the backend of back to back to back games. If the other team had played the two previous days they would have a fighting chance.
