Is there anyone here who didn't think it would get worse before it got better? The sky is not falling. This is just natural.

I've got no issue with them being blown out. This lineup needs wholesale change, 3 guys didn't cut it. They can lose the rest of the games this season for all I care. Get the picks we want, and then revamp this entire lineup in the offseason. If it takes continuous blowouts to the Oilers to help hammer that point home to management, then so be it.

Like the Yakupov goal. Sarich had his guy, Butler had his guy. Who's got Yakopov?
Yeah, never said it the defensemen only to blame.

It's probably the Flame's "fans" cheering for McKinnon...

Welcome to the rebuild. So, we want MacKinnon, right?

It's going to be really hard to cheer for this team.

I need to pick a new favorite player, but they're all kind of pissing me off right now.

This team could use a big smooth skating defenceman who would eat up 30 minutes a game or so.

Pretty hard to get shots on goal when your defence is letting them have the puck the whole time and can't get it out of our end.

I like how our fourth line has been our most dangerous line.
