lol I think aside from people who have been laid off, the uber rich has been affected the most as they generally have tons of investments that are not doing good at all.

Anything below amazing goaltending and this is a bad team. Ugh.

Gio why are you unable to do anything offensive this year. Him and brodie have lost any offensive skills they showed in past years

"Urgency" is not in Gul's vocabulary..

Yes, yes, let's blame Gulutzan. And that idiot Burke, too, for hiring Treliving who stupidly hired this incompetent coach. Gosh.

A shut down #4 d-man is one of the main needs I can think of.

The Jackets are a really good team that's playing really great hockey right now. Let's remember that before we go full postal on the Flames tonight eh everybody?

I thought they were playing ok up until the 3rd Columbus goal, which was clearly the back breaker. Since then their confidence looks shot and they look like they're gripping their sticks, giving the puck away and making dumb mistakes. They look unsure of themselves, which is too bad. I guess the Flames just aren't where I thought they were after the 6-game win streak.

This is one of those games where you can really see the difference between a solid playoff team and a bubble team. I really hope I'm wrong. If the Flames can bounce back from this and win the next couple of games, I'll be convinced. But right now they just look shell-shocked.

Columbus is just all over the Flames like a bad rash. Every loose puck, there is a Bluejacket. Also doesn't help that Calgary looks like they are skating in oatmeal.

Blue Jackets are content to play out the string. So why don't we PUSH? Instead of letting them dictate with time wasting hockey.

Saddledome ice isn't much better than skating on oatmeal.

Not much for the last month. This signing at first seemed great...now I'm starting to honestly wonder. This isn't just a cold streak, he looks disinterested.
