I would be frustrated if they gave up a 2-0 lead to any team, but it especially stings when it's against the Oilers and the Canucks.

When you rebuild, aren't you supposed to put down a foundation? What exactly is the Flames management doing in this regard? Who are we grooming to be the long term backbones of the team? To me the Flames brass is just dithering around with no clear direction, high picks don't help with that kind of approach.

Just ask the Oilers.

It sucks but oh well nothing to lose sleep over, both teams are so far out of it that is not even funny. Those west standings are crazy, 100 points for a wildcard spot I bet
It will come down... 96 is my guess...teams need to play each other a ton in div/conf

It's not about the rebuild. It's about choking a 2 goal lead to the worst team in the NHL. Barely AHL quality.

2 soft goals, one Berra lost sight of the puck and the other was his mistake not hugging the post...other than that I thought he was pretty good.

We're missing Glencross, we're missing our best player and Captain in Giordano.

The Flames are going to lose games. Unfortunately, I can guarantee that they'll lose a lot more.

Someone should tell Hartley that when your rookie goalie has lost 4 straight games now 5, he isn't hot anymore. I still think we win this game with Ramo in net.

I know our goalies are green or not super talented, but I really wish we could stop using this phrase to qualify their performances. I just want someone to step up. There was only 2-3 good scoring chances for the Oilers all night. This should have been a win, "plain simple" as Hartley would say.
