*Fist bump* my boy loves Paw Patrol too!!! I guess I'm a masochist for preferring to watch the Flames, but I get where you're coming from.

Paw Patrol is this generation's Transformers........or dare I say it... M.A.S.K.



Yup I'm old.

It's pretty embarrassing that they are asking every black CANADIAN about kneeling during the anthem. Besides...kneel on the bench?

Their goalie has been better.

Their PK and PP have been better.

Their defence has been better.

Their passing has been better.

Their compete level has been better.

Their hockey intelligence has been better.

Flames need to start taking things seriously, or next Wednesday is going to be another opening night slaughter.
Add to that
Oilers team which had a majority of roster players tore us apart up in Edmonton and a AHL roster from the Oilers tore our more veteran team apart in Calgary

Are you kidding me, wow and I thought I was drinking to much tonight, there are no words for your comments except about Wednesday being a slaughter unless we get our S*** together

Flames look terrible.

Smith is good for at least one brutal goal a game. He is also terrible at playing the puck. Stop already, confidence is one thing, doesn't mean it's warranted in this case.

Giordano, Brodie, stone making that d look like the most overrated in the league.

Forwards unable to generate anything. Look damn slow.

Good thing it's preseason, but it sure feels like this team is going to give up a touchdown opening night.

It's okay that he's bad though, at least his motor is there. Can't knock his effort and his heart's in the right place that's for sure.

The Oilers starting lineup (minus a few irrelevant players) lost 6-2 to Carolina a couple days ago. Preseason lol.

Thought I'd flip over to thursday night football for more entertainment value....and if possible it's more excruciating to watch than flames/canucks preseason.

So is the consensus that Backlund and Giordano suck now?

None of this will matter when Duchene is lining up beside Bennett on Wednesday. Or Jagr. Maybe Iggy.

Remember when we went 7-0 in the preseason? How did that season end up?
