We are the only team with a Wideman. A Dennis Wideman.

Likely because his other options include garbage Kevin, garbage Kulak and garbage Wotherspoon.

GG should be fired right now for this. Too bad coaching. No control of a team and a game.

So, the Flames are losing, and we all know that they never score while they're losing.

I have zero confidence in Elliott right now. Can only imagine that the team feels the same way, which leads directly to their sudden drop off in play in this game.

Yeah, if we could go ahead and not lose to the Devils, that'd be great.

I didn't think he was this bad but Wideman is to blame for at least two goals so far tonight. We won the last game 5-1 and he still looked bad in that game. When are the coaches going to stop rewarding this guy with playing time? I don't get. This is pathetic. He needs to be on the damn bench in the third. GG do you job and bench this plug.

*Flames play seven straight amazing periods*

"Wow, this team is great!"

*Flames play one horrible period*

"Fire the coach!"

Elliott wasn't the same after he gave the puck away behind the net. The guy is fragile as hell.

If we can't beat the Devils we really have no business making the playoffs.

I think its time to bench Wideman for the next game until the end of the season.

Their PP looks super dangerous when they play us, and yet they're 27th in the NHL. Our PK just looks useless against it.

It's a little bit of a longer story than that. Start at the beginning.

You want to expand that for the season?

None of the goals have been Elliot's fault whatsoever. The team is actually playing well minus the usually suspects losing it for us, Wideman is garbage and Bennett can't help but take a minor penalty at an important time.

The difference in this game is the Devils have one even strength goal and the Flames have zero. This team just does not score 5v5.

Elliott with weak 2nd goal.

Wideman on ice for first 2 goals then bad penalty on last goal.

I thought he shouldve had the second one.
