I watched every flames game so far, and they seemed to be trying to be defensive more than offensive...just my opinion..

Our powerplay entry strategy needs to change. The drop pass to Gaudreau with speed doesn't work when the rest can't do anything but stop at the blueline and wait for the pass along the boards. And the passes to the boards never connect because the players can't go until the puck crosses the blue line leaving them a step behind the rest. It's way too predictable and easy to stop.

Can they please fire Cameron? He's the PP guy, right? Already not impressed, at all.

Bennett really needs to start producing or at least make an impact.

Flames have blues x 2, hawks x 2, caps, sharks, send in their next 7 games. Season could be done before the 2nd week of the season. It's a process, what if the process is flawed ??

In 7 years he won't even be associated with the Flames. The flames have had 4 coaches since 2009.

PP still sucks.

Elliott still hasn't made the big save we need.

NO GOOD.
This, for me, is what's so gorram frustrating. AFter Hiller and Ramo utterly fecallated the bed last year, we were promised this amazing goalie, who had one of the best save percentages in the last 5 years.

And then on the ice we get Hiller again. Even the same jersey number.

I guess if the Oilers are going to turn it around while we spin our tires, they might as well smash us in the standings by 20 points.

Because #### it, why not?

Since I couldn't watch, were they doing the drop pass thing again? Or did the yelling fix that? I mean, if GG can pick at these problems one at a time, maybe there is hope.

Agreed. Dude has done absolutely nothing for 5 games. He's been the 4th best center on the team.
