Flames just being outplayed by a vastly superior team. Can't find much to be angry about right now, although I too am wondering why Johnny is riding the bench so much. This team is gonna struggle to score goals this season, and he's arguably the most skilled forward on the team. We need him on the ice.

I really like Bouma as a bottom 6 player, but I don't really understand his position in the lineup right now.

With that attitude you're going to be an alcoholic by the end of this season.

Yah that glove don't fit!

Gaudreau with Colborne don't fit either!

I really don't understand how Gaudreau is going to succeed when he keeps getting defensive zone starts.

Not my point, my point is that you always should play the winning goalie, and my original post wasn't meant to say Hiller's to blame.

Pure cowardice on his part. He's scared of the Flames.

Setoguchi knocking down our own defender leading to the 1st goal. Also my girlfriend forgot to bring home beer. So those two for me

Wideman throws it around the boards again for a turn over in our zone..

Carry it and make a tape to tape pass every once and a while...

Flames have tried to put together a true shut down line to play against the other team's #1 line. As he's a decent skater, plays physically, blocks shots fearlessly, and has decent defensive hockey sense, his position makes sense.

Setoguchi on the first goal. He came off the bench and tripped up Engelland as he was getting the puck along the boards. Resulted in a tic-tac-toe goal.


So far thats all I got.

Not that I really expect it to happen but I would love the Flames to make the playoffs this year just to quote some of the early season GTs about how it was all over already.
