Probably talking to the press explaining why we played so poorly.

To be absolutely fair, the team was pretty hot garbage at the start of last season too.

Yeah it was all Hudlers fault had nothing to do with the terrible goalies and allowing the most goals in the league.

I wonder what the interactions between Gelinas and Gulutzan are like.

It doesn't seem like Gulutzan knows about the individuals on this team. He seems unfamiliar with many of the the players at the top and bottom of the lineup. I'm sure Gelinas has a good grasp on all of this already, so I wonder if he has been asked for help.

Unless the Oilers and Canucks have somehow become powerhouse teams, the Flames have been a hot mess for 3 games.

Yep I've been eating sh*t all weekend. Sick of this season already. Wish the players and coaches gave a damn, sure doesn't look like it.

All in all a very good night.

No, the team sucked. The game sucked. The Canucks won.

I mean here. On CP in the PGT.

I am proud of the restraint shown.

Well...by almost everyone...LOL

It is only game 3 of an 82 game season.

The key word in that last sentence was "game".

It is. It's more like the RNH draft. A few decent players, but nothing to wow you at least right now.

Poetic. You are a true maestro with words.

It's time for some of these young guys to step up.

They play large roles on this team now. They have to generate something.

I thought Backlund was fantastic tonight. Best Flame by far, IMO.

Gulutzan is like a wee baby Conan just trying to make his way.

But the Flames are supposed to be better this year. Treliving and Burke told me so.

You're about as organized as the coaching staff.

That's pretty intense for a fan.

Damnit! So we're in the running for the best odds in a weak draft year. Terrible timing.

He'd be a better option than that useles plug Versteeg. Versteeg on the top line is a joke and the type of player that doesn't creates plays.
