IDK what you're talking about. Jagr's looked fine.

I think this is exactly everyone's frustrations. If you're going to call everything or nothing, do it the same for both teams.

Jagr's been fine. He's been one of our better players tonight, despite not being in the flow of the game due to all the penaltiesz

I can't help but think we could replace GG with a 1985 Atlanta phone book on the bench and have just as much success or failure.
Bro, even you can coach this team.

Once, again, the Winnipeg game. He switched up the lines and the game turned on a dime.

Canucks should tarp the second bowl like the Lions and Whitecaps do so they can hide their shame. Maybe if they force everyone into the lower bowl it’ll look full.

It's an overly easy thing to be worried and panicky about.

Really? I'm seeing the opposite. He is our best CF% player tonight

I choose B.
Actually its

C) Refs are incompetent league wide and the league has serious issues with refereeing consistency that make spectating the games painful.

I think both have immense upside.

I think both could have a long future with the Flames.

I think Bennett has the most talent of the two, the most potential upside.




....

However, I also think Bennett does the most idiotic #### of the two as well. Bennetts stupid penalties have outright cost us games, several times. You take that away from his game and I'd be even more excited about him.

Could the bar for Brouwer’s performance be possibly set any lower.
