That 4-2 goal was such garbage. I mean garbage goals take that goal out to the trash.

Why wasn't it blown down when Hiller had it under his blocker and pad? Why can't the refs do their jobs? You couldn't see the puck move for a couple seconds until they nudged him/his pad back into the net. Teams might as well just hack and knock goalies across the line to score all the time even after they make the save, seems efficient enough. Play should've been dead, man.

And alternately, the number of times the play's been blown down prematurely while ACTUALLY loose around/under a goalie on Flames opportunities in comparison, just boils the blood..

I agree. I think that one deserves it a lot more than the one that actually got it.

Give me a break on Feaster.. everyone was in love with him last season. Not sure what Feaster has anything to do with the crap he is pulling this year.

We're not getting the first overall pick folks. Odds aside, we just don't have the tanking experience that some of the other teams do. They really know how to tank in the clutch.

That's only the 3rd of 4th time he's done that this game. He's struggled a bit tonight.

The worst special teams in the entire NHL has cost the Flames a lot more than the goaltending has this season.

obviously not enough PK work during practices. Flames want to work on it more.

That was a bad contract he handed out when he first signed it, only last year was it good value.

[Cali Panthers Fan]

That penalty should be on Wideman for that atrocious muffed pass.

He has to be sat soon. This is getting ridiculous.

[GB70]

Forget sitting Wideman can we waive him ? pretty sure he won't be claimed. Then do the same with Russell and play Smid, call up a farm hand. Then winning. Sadly not as easy as that laughs.

There's some important players on this team that are committed to rebuilding right. Reach the top by grabbin' for the bottom.

####ing 3 days rest and they come out like that, though... smh.

the bad goaltending is a major part of the bad PK

I'm more or less hoping the flames win the lottery at this point. Some teams you just can't out suck

I'd say about 50/50. Early this season the goaltending was putrid. Other than the nice stretch by Ramo it's been pretty terrible.

[GB70]

weak goal tending, worst special teams in the league. This is why the team is where it is in the standings.
