I think the max this team gets up to is 24th or 23rd in the league and that's if they actually play like a hockey team again.

If we keep on this trend, top 3 is nearly guaranteed.

At least it'd be a low cost option for fixing things.

Don't know why you are looking for small victories, 13 days until ka-boom!
I think he is pointing out that we are not in position for a top pick

Geez, may as well just fold the franchise at that point.

CP=overreaction central.

Would like to see Begin and Jackman on waivers tomorrow. Demote both to Abby and bring up Reinhart and Aliu. That would be something and something is better than nothing.

I have a lot of faith in this team, I think at a worst the Flames will be in the Barkov discussion. I have a hard time seeing them win more than 6 games the rest of the way, 14 points in 20 games maybe. That would put them at 40 points, which should be good enough for bottom 3 or 4.

Do they expect us to keep watching the games though? I feel as though I signed on for this crap, so I am required to, but I just can't do it anymore.

Suicide might be the only option to get out of this deal we signed up for.

The Flames already are.

I listen to the Backhand Shelf Podcast from thescore.com daily and they laugh at how terrible we are almost every day. We are a laughing stock.

Top eight is fine by me and that seems to be the drop off point on elite talent. The higher the better but as hard as it is to believe, there are worse teams out there.

My bad PD. Apologies.

I don't think he's in denial, he just wants this torture to end soon, like I am sure we all want.

Lose tomorrow and we're 29th in points percentage.

I know this has been said many times - but if you want to see real change on this team between now and next year - hope for a noticeably large number of empty seats at home games now that the playoffs are essentially out of grasp - and there is nothing meaningful to play for. Empty seats = changes.

I was still optimistic until today - scoring 2 shorthanded goals and still losing ... wow

He's already a pro league veteran. I say lets give a chance to a rookie for once, but I guess that strategy has fallen on deaf ears for years with Flames management.
