I believe Hall has surpassed Seguin. A better player.

When was Seguin the better player? When Hall was injured?

Man, kipper should just shut it down for the ret of the year. Only saves he is good at are shots into the crest.

Tanguay, cammaleri, wiseman all pretty lousy also.

Love watching backlund and Brodie.

[Vedder]

Backlund has been the Flames best player (great, right?). Works hard, battles for the puck, creates scoring chances. He must have 5 or 6 shots tonight.

Yup, 5.

[MoneyGuy]

Whichever team you cheer for, I think we can agree this is a boring game.

[Jing]

Pretty sad team, the majority of the players look like they are mailing it in.

Is Hartley the right coach for this team? It seems like the D and forwards just let opposing players skate into the slot to take grade A chances all the time.

You gotta love the guy's enthusiasm. He's always out there trying as hard as he can, loving the game, no matter what. Nice to see that at least someone is out there trying to take advantage of the opportunity.

Never been a fan. His only success in the NHL came with a roster so stacked it would make Olympic teams blush. His style of play is only conducive to teams that have lots of top end talent that can outscore their problems.

The Flames are about as far from a fit for him as a team can get. Which in a weird way makes him perfect for what this team really needs - to finish as low as possible and obtain that top end talent.

The Flames need more of that quality. Same reason I wouldn't mind to see Glencross moved. Can fill the net, but doesn't bring it consistently enough. If we are going to rebuild, I want a team that works hard.

They seem to always be buzzing around the Oiler net every time I look at the tv

[dino7c]

Joey Mac playing way better than Kipper

again

[Fire in the disco]

Man, both these teams are brutal. So depressing

[ResAlien]

Aw fiddlesticks

[Nsd1]

Too much speed for the flames to handle.
