Last year's fortunes have caught up. We are paying it back with major interest.

I think we should really switch up some lines and get Stajan up on the 2nd line

Brace yourselves for some serious PGT hyperbole and hysteria

Ah well, back to being patient and expecting some bad stretches through the rebuild.

But man, lines 2-4 seems profoundly busted. I've never seen the Flames this toothless, maybe after they traded Fleury? Can this team score 200 goals? I'm not sure it can.

BT and Hartley are going to really earn their pay to fix this.

Honestly, how do Oiler and Leaf fans do it?

At this rate they should have credit soon and start winning.

Always nice to see fans support a good team.
Half the fans that attended can't see the team anyways.

Yep. Gotta start just crashing the net, shooting pucks and getting ugly goals. You know when Stajan is on a 2-on-1 shorthanded and tries a cute pass back that things are bad. Just skate hard, get the puck and shoot the thing.

Shrug. Not sure how else I'm supposed to caveat my post. You don't have to buy anything and I realize it's just "what I've heard", but it's a clear possibility to me after what I heard and from who.

Both Burke and Treliving inherited him. As we've seen Treliving do with players, he's not scared to cut bait when he thinks he's made a mistake. I'd be surprised if Hartley makes it to the allstar game.
With a team this bad, I'd be shocked if the coach wasn't showing these Timbit's how to hold the stick.

Monahan has been struggling all year. This has allowed other teams to key in on Gaudreau. Flames puck support has been bad too, but that was true last year too.

I hope Ortio doesn't lose the net right away. I know 3 is a lot, but his stats are not worse than the typical Hiller game.
