Three straight games outshooting the opponent, three straight losses. I preferred the other way around.

You'd think if you outshoot a team 45-19 you'd win, but it was that kind of night. They're on a 3 game losing streak of which they could have also won all 3 games..........I think they'll bounce back this weekend and buckle down in their own zone.
Two games in a row I noticed Brodie not playing like his norm.

Hard to be mad at a game like that, total domination, just a few defensive gaffs. Even Ramo didn't play bad.

Flames losing games they should be winning. So back-to-back wins against Pittsburgh and Chicago, right?
The goals were all close in, usually wide open because Brodie (x3) or Engelland completely screwed up. But Ramo didn't do much of anything to indicate he could have stolen this game. He was fairly pedestrian himself, I thought.

I didn't think the Flames effort was as poor as some are suggesting, I actually thought it was not too bad (not the best though).

Kind of interesting how coming into this season everyone thought we'd struggle scoring, but it seems to me we struggle more defensively than offensively (could be the system of engaging our defence so frequently though).

I thought Colborne was flying. I thought Glencross looked pretty darn good and usually I love beating up on him, but a couple really smart defensive plays.

I thought Tyler Myers actually wasn't bad, didn't know he was that big... I could see the appeal of getting him if his contract wasn't such an abortion.

Not a big deal really. This is the first road trip where they might get beat up a bit, but I still believe and really, if they squeak in at 8th I don't give a #### as long as they make it which they will.

Throw in Hiller tomorrow. Watch tomorrow they'll win.

Lack of a third pairing showing, top four D looking tired and mental mistakes creeping in. Liked the team game overall, but failing to make the smart simple play killed them tonight.

Flames weren't their normal selves tonight. Lots of non tape to tape passes and confusion out there. Good news is we get to play again tomorrow and turn it around. Lets hope Sid is sick.

No, Its just the arrogant way that you say ####. You can critique just don't make it sound like your a #######.

Spoken like an Oilers fan.

Taking a lot of shots rarely overcomes atrocious defence.

You don't really provide anything beyond shrill hyperbole. That's what annoys people.

Present some points that are more than "look at me! I am so special!! Pay attention to meeeeeeeee!" and people might listen.
