[GT] Oilers vs Flames

[Karl]

This is just gross. Whole team stinking up the joint.

[Infinit47]

The fact that GG started Johnson is clearly a huge error on his part. It's pretty rare to actually see an obvious coaching error, but there it was.

This was a great year to get a real coach and start to play the right way. Instead we play scared and passive all over the ice. Just great to watch.

Also, team prep is on the coach and staff. I didn't like Hartly, but did the team ever come out and consistently lay eggs like this under him.

There is a reason GG was punted from Dallas and resorted to taking an assistant coach position on a brutal Vancouver team.

Also I feel bad for that poster going to his first flames game. (slcrocker)

[Yamer]

They are playing DVDA in the Dome right now. WTF?

[Beninho]

Everything we've been botching about for the last 2 weeks has shown up tonight. Joki and Wideman being pylons, long spurts of inept offense, poor D coverage, Chiasson being Chiasson. Johnny has looked better this game so no be blame this #### on him

These are the questions that matter

I'm at the game tonight and honestly I didn't think the Flames were that bad that period.

Letting in three goals on four shots though is not a recipe for success.

Ha, well no beating around the bush with that post, eh?

[kukkudo]

Come on Bruins let Julien go and maybe the Flames have the balls to bring in an actual NHL coach.

[SmoggyFlamesFan]

I honestly feel sorry for anyone that went to the dome the last two games and paid to watch. We as fans deserve so much better than this. A team that is on the verge of missing the playoffs 14 times out of the last 20 years, and yet command top dollar to fill the seats. /end rant.

But we can't keep firing coaches and replacing GMs. And frankly these slow starts are completely on the players.

Maybe if there's a fault with the exception of Bennett, there haven't been any consequences for our stars.

Personally in a game like this, We might as well pass a message on to the so called not only core but leadership group of this team and staple their asses to the bench.

I think you do fire coaches and GMs and I think you do move players. Do you wait another year and cross your fingers hoping they play better. Something just doesn't look right with the entire team when you compare it to last year. We were supposed to be contenders this year.

If you guys think watching on tv is bad, try being at the game.

[Cali Panthers Fan]

Tkachuk draws yet another penalty.

[GioforPM]

Penalty?

[Machiavelli]

Teehee, Brossoit has been swallowing things up.

[activeStick]

Monahan gonna score...

[GioforPM]

Good, their best Dman too.

[MisterJoji]

For the love of god, get one.
