What's most frustrating is that the Flames have had some decent chances to score in this period, but as usual they're having all kinds of trouble finishing.

If our top players could actually play like top players, we could probably get back into this game. But sadly this year's team just doesn't seem have any of the comeback mojo they had two years ago. It's beyond frustrating.

Did Hamilton even try to stop him?

Yep. I'm from Saskatoon. Could have cheered for Edmonton, Vancouver, anyone really. Nope. I fell in love with this team.

Fans should be booing this team after that abomination of a period. Let them know this won't stand.

I'm booing but I'm a little too far away for them to hear it.

On the bright side we may be able to get Calgary Next for cheap! No need for a 19 000 capacity arena when a 12k one should be good!

The coach's peptalk certainly has not been

Ok defensemen, I want you to skate backwards, that's it, make sure you get in the goalies way, but don't do anything but skate backwards.

And fellas, lets not throw any hits out there or drive the net, these jersey's are expensive and they cost a lot to wash so whatever you do don't do anything that makes you sweat"

Frankly blaming the coaches for everything is entirely stupid. At some point the players have to take a hard look in the mirror and look at the fact that over the last week or so with a exception or two, they're playing lazy hockey.
They didn't show up against New Jersey, Nashville, and tonight against Edmonton.

They are not responding to this coach. You would think they would come flying out of the gate after a pathetic effort against Nashville but no one is ready.

That is the coach.

[QUOTE=Ashasx;6092661]"FLAME GETS A CHANCE, SHOOTS and it's blocked"

"FLAME COMING DOWN WIDE, CENTERS THE PUCK and it's taken away by the oilers"

repeat[/QUOTE

Are finishing is garbage, missing the net, shooing right at the goalie, if any Dman not named Hamiltoj is shooting you might as well just give the other team the puck cuz it's getting blocked or probably missing the net. Gio has had a shot from the point go in in ages. Frustrating and disappointing
